Monday 19th June 2023 - ACR Electronics, a leading provider of satellite communication devices, and Becklar Workforce Safety, a top-tier provider of comprehensive workforce safety solutions, proudly announce a new partnership aimed at maximizing safety for workers operating in remote locations.

This strategic collaboration harnesses the capabilities of the Bivy Stick, which utilizes the global Iridium satellite network, along with Becklar's comprehensive worker safety solution. By integrating the power of an Iridium-enabled global satellite communicator with Becklar's WorkerSafety Pro app, Safety Dashboard, and Monitoring Centre, the partnership ensures uninterrupted check-ins and access to safety services for remote workers, regardless of cellular coverage.

This partnership ensures that:

- All incidents are recorded on the centralized safety dashboard
- Incidents trigger notifications to contacts in the Workforce Safety system
- Action plans are followed according to company guidelines
