Vismo launches "Checkpoints" for proof of presence in a building or event space

YORK, U.K. - Aug. 28, 2025 - PRLog -- Vismo has announced "Vismo Checkpoints", a proof of presence tool that takes employee wellbeing a step further by using QR codes to let organisations know precisely where staff are in a building or event space.

Designed for high location accuracy and ease of use, Checkpoints is used with the Vismo Locate & Protect App on smartphones, from where it integrates with Vismo's secure portal and the employer organisation's security protocols. All users have to do is scan strategically placed QR codes with their phone. The app does the rest, giving users a message that the code has been scanned correctly, and uploading the data to the portal.

The QR codes are placed by the employer's admin team. Each scan sends the precise location of the user, via the portal, to the team.

"Checkpoints enables employers to understand not only the geographic location but also the position of staff in a building at the time of the scan," says Vismo Global Sales Director Colin Dale. "That could be very useful for field operatives who need to log visits to remote or unmanned locations, as well as increasing safety for hotel staff."

Compliance

Checkpoints helps with duty of care compliance, and is especially useful for employers whose workforce is widely distributed - because it can be scaled up by any number – and for safeguarding lone workers in healthcare and hotels.

Time stamped proof of presence

"Checkpoints is also useful for security staff, especially those working alone, who check buildings or other spaces at night," says Dale. "Security companies have to prove to their clients that their staff have been in agreed areas at agreed times. Checkpoints provides time-stamped proof of presence and is an excellent verification method for ensuring accountability and attendance as legally agreed."
