MBIE

GetHomeSafe - MBIE Edition is the official personal safety and welfare monitoring app specifically tailored for Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment (MBIE) employees, volunteers, consultants, and contractors. Designed to protect our lone and remote workforce, GetHomeSafe keeps your managers and supervisors informed of your field activities, travel plans, and expected safe return times. If you fail to check in on time or activate an emergency alert, the system automatically notifies the appropriate escalation contacts. Key Capabilities: - Journey Management Planning (JMP): Pre-plan your fieldwork or travel and request approval before departure to ensure all risks are managed. - Fail-Safe Alerting: Alerts are generated server-side, meaning help is called even if you lose cellular coverage or your device battery dies. - Hardware Integration: Fully compatible with MBIE-approved remote working solutions, including satellite communications and dedicated panic buttons. Core Features for MBIE Personnel: - Live location sharing and scheduled check-ins - Overdue, panic, and silent duress alerting - No-motion detection - Single Sign-On (SSO) integration with your MBIE credentials - SMS, email, and phone call alert notifications GetHomeSafe ensures you stay connected and protected, no matter where your work takes you. (Note: Continued use of GPS running in the background can decrease battery life.)
