October 5, 2020 ListenTALK Enables Social Distancing in the Workplace

COVID-19 has changed the way we do business. ListenTALK allows businesses to continue operations while maintaining a safe social distance.

PRODUCT: LISTENTALK
LOCATION: AARSCHOT (BELGIUM)

The Duracell Aarschot (Belgium) plant is an international high-tech production facility spreading over 42,000 sq. m. where 500 employees produce high-performance alkaline batteries for Europe, the Middle East, and Africa.

Problem

COVID-19 has placed global restrictions on the way we do business. Social distancing is the number one thing you can do to keep employees and guests safe. For many companies such as Duracell Aarschot, it is not possible for employees to work remotely because production on the plant floor must continue. However, face masks and distance on an already noisy floor creates barriers to communications and safety.

Solution

ListenTALK is a mobile two-way communication system, allowing frontline teams to maintain a safe distance while still doing the work required to keep the world running. The wireless system features a sleek, wearable transceiver (combination transmitter/receiver) that enables mobile group communication with the touch of a button.

Result

COVID-19 has changed the way we do business indefinitely. ListenTALK allows businesses to continue operations while maintaining a safe social distance.

  • Enables employees to communicate clearly, with a minimum 6-foot distance
  • ListenTALK eliminates barriers to mobile group communication, including distance, face masks, background noise, and hearing loss
  • Transceivers are easy to set up and sanitize between use
    – The entire unit, headset, and tray can be sanitized and disinfected between uses, stopping the spread of viruses and bacteria

ABOUT
ListenTALK enables “Social Distancing” while keeping excellent and effective communication

Employees wear the transceiver on a lanyard around their neck, accompanied by a headset with microphone or their own headphones or earbuds with built-in mic. There is nothing to carry, so individuals are free to perform their job duties. Crystal-clear audio is transmitted within a 100-meter radius indoors (200-meter radius outdoors), allowing employees to speak without shouting.

“ListenTALK is easy to use and causes no interference on our networks. The speech intelligibility is surprisingly good allowing clear communications between employees on the production floor.” WALTER TIELEMANS, DURACELL
