Mr. Silvermann works
for a security company where employees are tracked without interrupting
their daily activities.
This benefits the company and its employees
in many ways:
The employees The Employees feel much safer knowing that, in emergencies,
their mobile phones can be used as panic buttons; and
The employer There have been occasions where employees reported
that they where at their specific sites, only for Mr. Silvermann
to track them and discover that this was not the case. One employee
was actually found, passed-out, in a shebeen. Another (a security
guard) had sold his mobile phone to a friend (forgetting that it
could be tracked by Vodacom Look 4 me) and the told Mr. Silvermann that it
had been stolen. Mr. Silvermann tracked the phone. Together with
the tracking information, a confession from one of the guard's acquaintances
was enough evidence for the man to be arrested for his fraudulent
crime.
