    Absolutely. I worked as a bouncer in clubs where Bartenders and DJs had alarm and panic buttons.

    Even lab environments have emergency shutdown buttons, though for safety not security reasons.

    Humans work a lot of dangerous jobs and very often the danger is human.

      I used to work in a hospital laboratory. You bet your butt we have panic buttons that call security to our spot when needed. And notice I said when and not if, that’s because they do get used once in a blue moon.

          I’ve seen crazy patients, crazy coworkers, and crazy coworker’s relations trying to start shit causing the need for security to be called. Seriously hospitals are a concentrated cesspit of people experiencing high emotions/stress at the worst time in their lives. I remember the panic buttons being installed almost 2 decades ago after an incident where a coworker’s partner showed up one night and beat the shit out of them in the middle of the lab.
