Save-On-Foods Memorial Centre is implementing facial scanning and cloud-based mobile technology for its staff, in an effort to streamline operations.

Arena operator GSL Holdings has undertaken the use of B.C.-based Active Witness security technology, which will see staff use facial verification and QR-codes loaded to their cellphones to access facilities rather than using physical key cards.

B次元官网网址淔ollowing approximately two years of ongoing pandemic restrictions, businesses are turning to newer solutions that do not require the use of physical credentials and provide real-time facility access data,B次元官网网址� reads a release from GSL.

The company expects the change to benefit staff of the 7,000-seat arena, especially with busier seasons anticipated with the lifting of COVID restrictions.
