Within the E3 Safety app, various roles are equipped with specific permissions designed to enhance safety management. Access these settings by navigating to Settings > Group Roles > Manage Roles, and then selecting the role you wish to adjust permissions for.
Here's a breakdown of each role permission and its function:
Alerts ⚠️
Send Alerts: Allows users to send alerts (almost all users have this permission)
Administrate: Users can manage the active alerts, meaning they can end alerts, upgrade alerts and escalate from internal to external (all admin users have this permission)
Approve: This permission enables a user to approve or deny alerts, for approval-required alerts only (not a very common alert type).
Skip Check-in: Users granted this permission can bypass mandatory check-ins during an alert. i.e. Responders will have this permission and when an alert goes off, they can go straight into the chat and map and skip the check-in questions, where are you and are you safe.
