HOUSTON—WorldVue announced a partnership with ProSafe to provide a more secure environment for hotel employees at properties throughout the world. This partnership expands the safety capabilities of WorldVue’s hospitality customers with the use of ProSafe’s smartphone-based security applications.
“We are proud to partner with ProSafe to support the industrywide roll-out of an innovative and valuable smartphone application that benefits hotel owners by providing a safer and more transparent working environment for their associates,” said Robert Grosz, president and chief operating officer at WorldVue. “Recruiting and retaining employees is one of the most complex problems discussed with our guest-centric clients. The ProSafe smartphone application and underlying platform provide a platform for associate safety, which can be deployed in hours, not days. Most importantly, the platform does not depend upon property owner-provided proprietary networks, which makes it highly reliable and affordable.”
Founded to increase workplace safety in the hospitality industry, ProSafe is a room/area level accurate, geo-location, and evidence-gathering panic button platform. The application’s safety-first interface is intended to be easy to understand while helping deliver associate communication and quick response. Platform features include:
- Geo-location | Notification of exactly where an associate’s panic button is pressed
- Multiple activation methods | Options for associates to activate alerts silently or audibly
- Audio and visual evidence gathering | Assurance of accurate incident details
- QR-RFID location reporting | Extra layer of security using NFC-RFID technology
- Incident reporting | Comprehensive feature including all relevant data
- Push to talk | Communication channel for general broadcasts or direct contact
- Real-time translation | Assistance with language barrier via voice message or chat
- Security checklists | Components designed for security personnel to secure grounds
“The mission behind WorldVue naturally aligns with our values at ProSafe. We are looking forward to supporting the addition of our platform into their customers’ daily operations and safety measures,” adds Yazan Barqawi, co-founder of ProSafe. “The goal of our founders was to create the most advanced panic button platform for hotels and their associates, so to continue sharing their dedication with new hotels is fulfilling.”
