Farming & Agriculture

A dangerous industry needs reliable communications

Contact us today so we can discuss and plan the right solution for you. 

 

Farming and agricultural businesses are under increasing pressure to cut costs and increase efficiency. As one of the top three most dangerous industries in New Zealand, protecting worker safety is paramount, which is reflected in heightened OH&S requirements. Workers deal with bad weather, dangerous machinery or vehicles, unpredictable animals and hostile landscapes – so you want to remain in constant contact with that worker in case the worst happens. The solution Two-way radio communications systems are widely used in the farming and related industries, as they meet many of the challenges of this industry. These systems provide customers with a reliable, fast and effective way to:

  • stay in contact with all staff over a large geographical area
  • maintain reliable coverage over rough terrains
  • deliver specific instructions to staff either as a group or individually
  • increase productivity by wasting less time trying to physically locate staff
  • protect staff safety by knowing their location at all times
  • monitor lone workers with radio applications
  • improve incident response times, especially with man-down functionality
  • help meet OH&S requirements

Our customers Our customers include Mundtville Farm, who presented a real-life example of how two-way radios helped an injured farm worker. “We’d had the radios only a matter of days when a staff member fell off a motorbike and broke his leg. He called us via the radio, we got to him within minutes, took him to the medical centre and he was airlifted to Christchurch.” David Sloss, general manager, Mundtville Dairy Farm Productivity also increased, as workers no longer wasted time looking for each other or making multiple trips: “It’s all about increased productivity. Staff aren’t driving around looking for each other all the time, so they spend more time on other tasks and not waiting for instructions. We can make changes instantly … instead of making another trip to tell staff and then another to feed out the additional supplement.” David Sloss, general manager, Mundtville Dairy Farm
