Hospitality

A silent call for help, in every room.

XGen Connected Response gives housekeepers and staff who work alone a discreet, wearable way to summon help from any guest room, and pinpoints exactly where they are so security arrives fast. It connects to 911 when needed and helps you meet state and city hotel-worker safety laws, on the same platform that runs your property paging.

Hotel staff panic buttons and lone-worker safety for hospitality

Wearable and discreet

A small device staff carry so help is moments away, even alone in a guest room.

Locates the room

The alert pinpoints the exact room or floor, so security goes straight there.

Immediate response

On-property security and management are alerted instantly, with 911 when needed.

Helps meet mandates

Why it matters

Your people work alone, behind closed doors.

Housekeepers, room-service staff, and maintenance often work by themselves, out of sight and earshot. XGen Connected Response gives them a discreet way to call for help, pinpoints exactly where they are, and brings the right people fast, while helping you meet a growing patchwork of hotel-worker safety laws.

How it works

Press. Locate. Respond. Coordinate.

A clear, practiced chain that turns a silent activation into help at the right door.

1

Press

A staff member presses the wearable device. The emergency trigger takes several deliberate presses so it is never set off by accident.

2

Locate

Beacons pinpoint the exact room and floor and place the alert on a live responder map.

3

Respond

On-site security and management are alerted instantly, and 911 is reached with your verified location when needed.

4

Coordinate

The team coordinates in real time, reassigns the worker, and a time-stamped record is kept for compliance.
