Where Duress earns its place on a utilities & resources shift.
Each scenario maps to a Duress product and to an outcome we can show in the audit log.
-
Eagle ›A lineman climbing a remote tower.
Eagle on the climb with fall detection running in the background. Auto-escalates if they hit the ground and don't respond in 60 seconds. Help reaches the site through dispatch and the Operations Centre in parallel.
-
Falcon ›A mining worker underground.
Falcon with Bluetooth-beacon positioning gives dispatch the exact bay, the exact level, the exact face. Not just "somewhere in the pit". Code-orange escalation routed through your existing mine emergency response.
-
App ›A field-service tech at a substation alone.
Duress App on the phone in their pocket. Safety Timer set on the gate. Slide-to-alert if a switching error or a hostile visitor changes the picture. Live audio to operators while the tech walks to the truck.
-
Phoenix ›An offshore platform worker on a confined-space entry.
Phoenix on a lanyard, Pathfinder workflow tracks entry / exit / check-in. Missed check-in auto-escalates to platform OHS and the Operations Centre simultaneously.
-
Eagle ›A field crew on a coupe deep in the bush.
Eagle with continuous GPS breadcrumb over 4G LTE. Man-down sensor escalates if no motion detected for the configured window. Crew leader sees everyone's location on Pathfinder in real time.
-
PathfinderAnnual ICAM investigation, regulator briefing.
Pathfinder produces the full event log: alert, location, response, dispatch chain, time-to-help, outcome. Investigators get a complete factual record without anyone reconstructing the day from logbook entries.
Safety that escalates itself.
-
Slide-to-alert.
Slide to send live location and audio to operators. Hard to misfire, fast under pressure.

-
Medical ID.
Operators see medical conditions and emergency contacts at the moment of an alert. Stored in the app, never shared off-shift.
Designed to disappear into the background.
Less than 2% phone-battery impact in background mode. Safety timer and check-in keep working with the phone locked.
0devices Extra hardware to carry, charge, or lose.
<2% Phone battery impact in background mode, even with the safety timer running.
Maps to the acts your auditors quote in Australia.
Primary obligation
Work Health and Safety Act 2011 (Cth) and state mirror legislation
Australian utilities and resources operators carry a WHS duty of care plus sector-specific obligations under state Mining Acts, Electricity Safety Acts, and the National Offshore Petroleum Safety and Environmental Management Authority (NOPSEMA) regime offshore. Duress provides the lone-worker controls, the activation log, and the after-event audit trail each regulator expects in a serious-incident investigation.
