Ascom personnel alarms for high street stores

Shoppers love the easy accessibility and personal service offered by high street stores. These same qualities can also leave staff vulnerable to abuse, theft, and even physical assault. But there is a proven way to maximise staff safety - without compromising efficiency or the shopping experience. With an Ascom personnel alarm solution, staff are only a discreet button push away from help.

Every high street store is unique. So it only makes sense that staff alarm solutions are customised to their specific needs and infrastructures. Ascom specialises in such systems; integrating different infrastructures, technologies (DECT, IP, cellular) and handsets to maximise staff and customer safety.

  • Safer staff means more productive staff

    Devising staff alarm solutions requires specialist knowledge and an understanding of the realities faced by store workers. It also usually involves integrating various systems and technologies like cellular, Wi-Fi, Paging, and DECT. Then comes user training, scheduled maintenance, around the clock support, and software updates. Your organisation’s needs may change too. You may want to integrate your staff’s handsets with fire, refrigeration and other technical alarms. Or you may want to equip staff with Ascom d81 ‘Protector’ handsets, possibly the most robust handset ever made. Whatever your security needs, Ascom will find the solution.

Other solutions

Ascom click-and-collect solutions >

With an Ascom communications solution you can harness existing infrastructure and systems to offer click-and-collect services (also known as BOPUS, Buy Online Purchase at Store). The key to success, however, is fast turnaround. By intelligently managing messages and data to mobile staff, an Ascom solution can help expedite merchandise pick-ups.

Ascom mobile solutions for retail >

Why should shoppers stand in slow-moving lines, when today’s wireless technology has made POS stations fully mobile? Why should checkout queues slow turnaround times and deter potential customers, when mobile staff with handheld barcode scanners can instead go to shoppers and speed up the checkout process?

Ascom inventory control solutions >

In a perfect world you always know when a delivery vehicle is due. You and your colleagues always have a real-time overview of inventory—what’s out of stock, as well as what’s out of stock but available in store rooms, warehouses or other stores. You can track and locate merchandise, and check prices. And you can do all this from one handset that also handles calls, messages and alarms. The good news is that it’s possible with an Ascom communications solution.
