Safety for delivery drivers.
A delivery driver is alone all day, at a different address every few minutes, often carrying something worth taking. The vehicle is the workplace and the workplace keeps moving.
What delivery drivers are actually up against
Repeated approaches to unfamiliar addresses alone, road risk between stops, and the possibility of theft or assault at the point of delivery, often after dark.
- A confrontation at the door over a missing, late or refused delivery
- A vehicle incident on a rural or unlit route with nobody aware of the driver's position
- An attempted theft from the vehicle while the driver is away from it
Fall detection, missed check-ins and expired safety timers accounted for roughly one FY26 alarm in six: alarms nobody was able to raise by hand. See the data ›
What we'd recommend
Match the tool to the risk. Most teams layer a monitored app with a wearable trigger so help arrives whether the worker presses, gestures, falls, or goes quiet.
Duress App
Live location and check-ins across a route, so an overdue driver is noticed rather than assumed to be running late.
See Duress App ›Phoenix
A button on the person rather than in the cab, because the incident usually happens at the door and not behind the wheel.

Fall detection and streaming for higher-value or higher-risk routes.
