New York's latest legislation, NY Law S8358B, mandates that all businesses with 50+ employees must install panic buttons to ensure workplace safety. While this is a necessary step to protect employees, many panic button solutions—like those offered by Verkada, Rhombus, SimpliSafe, Ring, and Envysion—come with significant drawbacks. These systems require a full integration with alarms or cameras, leading to costly upgrades, complex installations, or even a complete overhaul of existing infrastructure.
In contrast, WSPER offers a completely stand-alone panic button solution that makes compliance easy, fast, and affordable without the need for an entire system upgrade. Let’s break down why WSPER is the smart choice for businesses needing to meet these new legal requirements.
- No System Upgrades Required: Unlike competitors that require a full alarm or camera system to function, WSPER panic buttons are completely decentralized. This means you can install them without upgrading or converting your existing security systems.
- Quick and Easy Installation: WSPER panic buttons are designed for fast deployment. With LTE-M connectivity and battery-powered functionality, you can have your panic buttons up and running in hours, not weeks.
- Cost-Effective Solution: Full system installations can be costly, both in terms of equipment and labor. WSPER offers a simple, affordable solution with no hidden costs—just effective safety measures.
- Global Coverage with LTE-M: WSPER operates on a cellular LTE-M signal, ensuring that the panic buttons work anywhere in the world without relying on your business’s internet or infrastructure.
- Reliable Battery-Powered Devices: WSPER panic buttons last for over 1 year on a single battery charge, ensuring long-term reliability with minimal maintenance.
Businesses that rely on solutions like Verkada, Rhombus, SimpliSafe, Ring, and Envysion need to invest in their entire security ecosystem—cameras, alarms, and software—to get panic button functionality. These platforms are powerful but often require a full commitment to their ecosystem, which can be time-consuming and expensive to install, upgrade, or convert. WSPER, however, gives you a targeted and efficient solution, without the need for an expensive overhaul.
For New York businesses looking to meet compliance quickly and easily, WSPER panic buttons offer the perfect solution. By integrating our stand-alone devices, your business can not only meet the legal requirements but also provide critical safety tools for your employees with minimal hassle.
