kari’s law (which went into effect on february 16, 2020) focuses on ensuring that end-users have the ability to make calls to emergency services by simply dialing the digits 9-1-1 in enterprise environments while also including a notification to the enterprise itself of the 911 emergency. section 506 of ray baum’s act is concerned with the quality of the information that’s sent to public safety operators when the call is made. together, they’re all about providing better, faster, more reliable access to emergency services when dialing 911. | bandwidth.com | 19 | db8f74ae44a4fbfb1f309f8838498206 | first, we strongly urge impacted enterprises to speak with legal counsel for guidance with compliance. the best legal approach for any given enterprise may vary depending upon the nature of the services in question or the size and complexity of your organization.
second, the provisioned emergency location information for your employees may need to be updated to include additional data such as building, floor number, suite, conference rooms, etc. to provide more granular location information. all provisioned emergency location information should be validated to ensure consistency with public safety address standards.
third, you will need to plan for workers who may be using nomadic, non-fixed mlts services such as softphone applications on a laptop or other mobile devices. many companies we work with are transitioning away from traditional, fixed desktop phones. they will likely need to adjust how they manage their emergency location information to account for new nomadic communications services that commonly allow employees to work in the office and remotely.
finally, endpoints need to be tested to ensure that the correct emergency location information will be conveyed to public safety during 911 calls. such testing might ordinarily require contacting and coordinating with appropriate 911 call centers, but bandwidth offers an easy to use alternative testing service (“933”). bandwidth’s 933 testing service allows enterprises to test the emergency calling capabilities on their phones without actually dialing 911 (which may otherwise risk detracting resources from true emergencies). | [] | 0 |
