Which role should I select?

Selecting the right role

Choosing the right role or roles for a person really depends on what you want them to do. 

  • Are they using a personal safety device or app? 
    Choose the User role.
  • Are they a Team Leader, Supervisor or Manager for a team of people?
    Choose the Manager role.
  • Are they someone who could help during an alarm?
    Choose the Escalation Contact role. 
  • Are they going to keep information up to date for the whole company?
    Choose the admin role.

Which role can access which areas and sections of Nexus?

NOTE: You can have multiple roles on a single profile and some areas may be restricted by privacy controls in your account's company profile settings. 

You must create a single profile per person, you can add multiple roles to their profile if needed.
