Learn how to view geofences on the live map via the web app to help you track designated areas across all job types.

What are geofences in Lone Worker?

Geofences in Lone Worker allows you to create areas on the Live map to monitor when a worker enters or exits an area, and start their lone-work jobs. This helps you understand time spent in an area, highlight arrival or departure times for high-risk jobs, and provide proof of attendance when needed.
For example, a utilities company can track when technicians arrive at and leave different work areas, confirming service times and supporting worker safety.

Create a polygon geofence for the lone worker feature via the web app.
