Why It Matters

Why Check Calls Save Lives

Millions work alone or live independently without anyone nearby to notice if something goes wrong. In critical moments, the difference between a close call and tragedy comes down to one thing: did someone notice in time? That’s why check calls exist. That’s why they work when everything else fails.

Why Employers Need Check Calls

The Law Demands It

The Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 and Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999 legally require you to identify risks, implement safety measures, ensure monitoring and have emergency systems ready.

In plain English: If someone works alone for you, you need a way to know they’re safe and procedures to act fast when they’re not.

The Consequences Are Devastating

Your business faces: Unlimited Crown Court fines. Corporate manslaughter charges. Reputation damage. Insurance premiums that skyrocket or disappear.

You personally face: Prosecution under Section 37. Up to two years in prison.
Disqualification from being a director. Unlimited fines. A professional reputation that may never recover.

Your People Deserve It

Beyond legal compliance, there’s a simple truth: people who work for you deserve to go home safe. When someone’s working alone and something goes wrong, minutes turn into hours. Check calls ensure someone notices. Always.

Why Employers Need Check Calls

Why Families Need Check Calls

Independence Shouldn’t Mean Isolation

Your mum insists she’s fine living alone, but you worry. Your brother with health challenges values independence, but what if he can’t call for help? Your daughter’s moved away for university, she’s capable, but still your daughter.

Elderly loved ones have earned the right to live in their own homes. Vulnerable adults deserve autonomy. Young people need space. But everyone deserves peace of mind knowing someone will notice if something goes wrong.

Time Matters in an Emergency

Falls are the leading cause of injury-related death in over 65s. The longer someone lies hurt and alone, the worse the outcome. Hypothermia. Dehydration. Treatable injuries become life-threatening.

For vulnerable adults, minutes matter. A diabetic episode. A seizure. A cardiac event. Even for healthy young adults. Carbon monoxide poisoning, domestic accidents, medical emergencies strike without warning. Check calls mean someone notices within minutes, not hours or days. In an emergency, that’s everything.

Why Check Calls Beat Panic Buttons and Apps

Panic Buttons Require Reaching Them

Someone falls and hits their head. They’re unconscious. The panic button around their neck might as well be on the moon. A worker collapses. Their device is in their pocket. Unreachable. An elderly person falls in the bathroom. The alarm is in the bedroom. Panic buttons only work if someone is conscious, mobile and able to activate them. When help is most desperately needed, they often fail. Check calls notice the silence.

Apps Create Barriers

Smartphone apps promise geolocation, man-down detection, one-touch SOS. They look impressive in demonstrations. But they rely on users doing everything right: charging their phone, opening the app, starting their shift, having mobile data, having a compatible smartphone and knowing how to use it.

The elderly shouldn’t need new technology to stay safe. Your night shift worker’s safety shouldn’t depend on signal or data allowance.

Simple Systems Work

They work when someone’s unconscious. When apps aren’t opened. When panic buttons are out of reach. They’re proactive, not reactive. They don’t wait for a button press, they notice when someone doesn’t check in. In an emergency, that’s exactly what you need.

Why My Check Call?

My Check Call replaces reactive safety with proactive protection. Just like you wouldn’t wait until just before a crash to put on your seatbelt, our service ensures someone is always looking out for your lone workers, so help is ready before it’s needed, not after something goes wrong.

We Put Your People First

Most providers sell technology, devices, apps and platforms. They focus on features.

We focus on people. Real people monitor every check call from our 24/7 operations centre. When someone doesn’t check in, a real person notices and acts. Technology handles automation, but humans handle care. Safety is about people looking out for people.

We Remove the Barriers

The lone worker safety market prices out small businesses and families with expensive devices, complex contracts and spiralling fees.

No devices. No apps. No complicated technology. No hidden costs. Just straightforward pricing from £5.99 per month, per user. Less than a weekly coffee for 24/7 protection. Safety shouldn’t be a luxury only large corporations can afford.

We Understand What Matters

Behind every check call is a real person. Someone’s employee. Someone’s parents. Someone’s child. Someone who matters.

That’s why we send customers birthday cards and chocolate. We send flowers after major incidents. Every customer has a dedicated account manager. We answer with real people, not AI or automated menus. When you’re trusting someone with safety, you deserve a service that cares back.

We’ve Proven It Works

Decades of proven check call protection. Trusted by security, now safeguarding every industry and family, every day.

Check calls have protected security workers for decades. Now we’re making that proven protection available to every industry and family. Not because it’s new, but because it’s proven and reliable. When someone’s safety is on the line, you want something tested over decades.

What Happens Next…

The Bottom Line

You need check calls because the law requires it, consequences are devastating and people deserve to be safe. You need check calls instead of panic buttons and apps because they work when everything else fails. When someone’s unconscious, apps aren’t opened, data signal isn’t available, buttons can’t be reached.

You need My Check Call because we’ve made a proven system accessible, affordable and genuinely human. Because safety shouldn’t be complicated. It should just work.
