Saarbahn
The Company
Saarbahn is the largest transport company in the federal state of Saarland. Together with Saarbahn Netz GmbH, Saarbahn GmbH employs around 580 people. It transports approximately 43.7 million passengers per year. Since 2020, all security personnel wear the NetCo Body-Cam.
Body-Cam Application
Start:
2020
Main Objective:
stronger protection of staff against assaults and de-escalation of dangerous situations for workers as well as for passengers
Application:
in buses and trains as well as in the area directly surrounding bus and train stops (future introduction during ticket inspection)
Feedback:
The de-escalating effect of the large touch display plays an important role in the everyday work of the security forces. Operations Manager Michael Irsch commented, “We have had the experience in a pilot test that the cameras have a preventive deterrent effect.” Additionally, he noted, “Even the announcement provides a deterrent to any aggressive passengers.”
Furthermore, the informative exchange with NetCo has significantly simplified the GDPR-compliant establishment of the body cams.

Weiterhin hat der informative Austausch mit NetCo die DSGVO-konforme Etablierung der Body-Cams deutlich vereinfacht.
