It’s important to regularly test your Orisent emergency alert system to ensure that your workers know how to trigger an evacuation or medical emergency alert, that the hardware and software is working as it should, and your emergency response personnel understand what action to take. How often you test your system, and how you test it, is up to you to determine.

Have you been in a position where you’ve encountered something at your workplace that you deemed dangerous? It could be a cord stretched across a high traffic area or obstructions in a stairwell. There could be a burning smell in the elevator or electrical equipment in the staff break room that keeps shorting out. Essential equipment like evacuation sirens or nurse call triggers might have lost connection to the rest of the emergency alert system.
