What Is a Duress Alarm?

A duress alarm is a personal safety device designed to silently call for immediate help when someone feels threatened, is under attack or needs urgent medical assistance. These alarms are used in high risk environments and can be activated with a single press. They alert emergency contacts or a live monitoring centre without alerting the aggressor, allowing for rapid and discreet intervention. Duress alarm systems come in many forms, including wall mounted buttons, wearable pendants and mobile phone apps. They are designed to be easily accessible to the person in distress while remaining hidden from view, like a discreet device . Some systems also include GPS tracking, ensuring emergency services can locate the person immediately.

How Duress Alarms Work

When activated, a duress alarm sends a silent signal to a designated response team or 24-hour monitoring centre. Operators can assess the situation, contact emergency services and dispatch help without delay. Depending on the system, which can be used in various environments the alarm may also include two way voice communication or GPS location data for more precise response coordination. Silent duress alarms allow the user to call for help without escalating the situation. This makes them especially valuable in danger situations such as medical emergencies, violent confrontations and incidents involving lone workers.

Duress Alarms in the Workplace

Workplace safety is a legal and ethical responsibility. Duress alarms are essential for high risk industries and roles involving public interaction, isolation or exposure to aggressive behaviour. They allow for quick intervention before situations escalate. In fact, over 75 percent of government workers report feeling unsafe in high risk roles. Healthcare workers face even greater challenges, with more than 60 percent experiencing workplace violence. A staggering 95 percent report facing aggressive behaviour during their shifts. In these environments, duress alarms provide a vital safety net and improve incident response times, addressing the concern of safety. By implementing effective communication systems, employers can reduce risks for remote workers and those working alone. This includes ensuring systems have full coverage throughout all areas and are maintained regularly to ensure safety and peak performance.
