Are your lone workers safe and protected at all times?
Employees operating in the community can be exposed to higher risk throughout the course of a normal day. These workers may be social service workers on home visits, environmental staff working in remote locations or even traffic wardens for example. If your staff work in any of the situations below, you could be obliged by law to offer them protection: · Alone · Outside normal office hours · In remote locations · In people’s homes · In a changeable environment
Any member of staff who faces the public is at risk of verbal and physical abuse. In some industries, however, assaults on staff are much more commonplace. Lone working is a complex topic and demands careful consideration since it is subject to potentially harsh consequences under current Health & Safety legislation. As an employer of lone workers, the Health and Safety at Work Act , requires that you identify and assess the risks and take steps to minimise them.
By implementing a simple to operate risk management solution companies can identify a workers location and respond with tailored escalation protocols for individual users. Equipment plays an important role, one device is better than carrying multiple devices, for this reason we recommend using a smartphone with GPS for pin point accuracy (10 meters), although there are solutions that can be implemented on standard mobile phone, the accuracy can be compromised. Through the use of the latest mobile and telecom technologies; service users are linked to a 24-hour, 365 days a year control room utilising sophisticated voice recording systems and management software; detailed mapping and resilient control room IT systems.
