Description
From the listing uploaded by “appupdater”.
In the event of a work-related accident or critical-incident, immediate action is of vital importance. By alarming the right people directly, valuable time can be gained, providing you with critical minutes when they’re most needed, and thereby limiting the consequent damage.
With the Safeguard crisis-communication app, the right people can be immediately notified in the case of an emergency.
Safeguard is used by:
- Emergency responders
- First aid personnel
- Evacuation teams
- Security staff
- Crisis teams
The use of Safeguard has many advantages:
1. Automatic presence detection
Safeguard automatically detects whether emergency personnel are present and alarmable. For this we use "Geofencing" technology. Safeguard never follows a user outside of a Geofence (your company’s perimeter).
2. Receive notifications on your smartphone
In the event of a calamity, the notifications are sent via a push message with both sound and vibration. You can indicate whether you are going to assist in the situation by accepting or refusing the notification.
Messages are sent via WIFI, 4G, 3G and GPRS. If the employee has a bad internet connection or does not respond, an SMS will be sent.
3. Communication tool
Safeguard offers the possibility to start a Conference Call between employees who have accepted an alarm. Through the app, it is possible to see who is present at a location, whilst the option also exists for you to contact these persons via telephone.

Government-wide ERO App APK: questions and answers
Can I install this APK over the version I already have?
Only if it is signed with the same certificate as the copy on your phone and isn't an older version. If Android says “App not installed”, the certificates differ; uninstalling your copy first works but deletes its data unless it is backed up.
Is the Government-wide ERO App APK safe?
No one can promise that a file is safe, but some things can be checked. The source store rates this file Trusted. After downloading, check that the file's MD5 is bf020bd9ec0530e9c32b13e3448910ba.
