Why
Why lone worker safety matters
On most properties the back paddock is a one-person job. So is the early start at the pumps and the last check before dark. There's rarely a second set of eyes, and that's exactly when a fall, a rollover or a health scare turns serious — because no one knows to come looking.
Agriculture is the deadliest industry in the country1, and vehicles like side-by-sides and quad bikes are now the leading cause of death on farms2. The common thread in the worst outcomes isn't the incident itself. It's the time that passes before anyone realises.
On average, one Australian farmer dies by suicide every ten days — a reminder that looking after people in the bush is about more than physical injury.3
How it works
How AirAgri watches over lone workers
It runs quietly on a phone or a rugged Bush Beacon — on the mobile network where there's coverage, and direct-to-satellite where there isn't.
Set a check-in
Workers head out with a simple timer or schedule. No coverage needed — the device tracks location and movement on its own.
It notices trouble
A fall, a long stretch of no movement, or a missed check-in trips an alert automatically. Nothing to remember, no button to find.
The right people are told
The alarm reaches whoever's closest and rostered on, with a live location to drive to — by app, SMS and call.
Everyone's accounted for
Managers see who's out, where, and whether they've checked in — across every paddock, shed and yard.
What you get
What you get
Quiet protection for the people working alone, and peace of mind for everyone waiting at home.
Man-down & no-movement alarms
Automatic alerts on a fall or a stretch of stillness — the worker doesn't have to do a thing.
Overdue & missed check-ins
If someone doesn't check in on time, the right people know before it becomes a search.
Works beyond phone range
Direct-to-satellite location and SOS where there's no mobile signal at all.
Live location for response
Responders get a point on a map, not a guess — so help arrives faster.
Discreet duress SOS
A quiet way to call for help in a situation that doesn't feel safe.
Where it fits
Built for the way you work.
Used across every kind of operation — from a solo owner-operator to a pastoral company running crews over thousands of hectares.
