WC itself doesn't have "anything". Folks who work their use
their own personal phones. I'm sure there are a dozen pagers
sitting *in* the recycle bin -- but no "service" to use them.
This shouldn't *need* anything "outside" the organization.
It's a simple problem -- just complicated by the environmental
issues and (real) possibility of vandalism. E.g., a display
device that can deal with the temperature extremes (bank
"time and temperature display") or short distance radio link
(e.g., I can probably do it with the radio in a wireless
mouse!)
