Lone worker protection is an employee safety and security measure designed to monitor employees working alone in real-time. The solution can be deployed via smartphone apps with countdown timers to prevent accidental activation, wearable devices such as smart watches or hard hats with hard hat sensors, handheld satellite devices for remote locations or handheld satellite devices that have GPS navigation capability. Once activated, alerts are transmitted directly to an online monitoring platform or professional security service which will verify and escalate them according to organizational lone work policies.
Workers who operate alone or in isolation are at greater risk from violence, aggression and hostage situations than workers working in teams. This applies to social care workers, paramedics, security guards and those visiting client homes to perform repairs or provide other services. Furthermore, accidents are more likely among lone workers.
An employer has the responsibility of considering all risks that lone workers could be exposed to and providing them with suitable control measures in order to mitigate those risks. This may involve conducting a risk analysis to identify and mitigate those risks, providing training on any relevant hazards or risks, and making sure they have access to necessary personal protective equipment.
Accidents happen, regardless of how stringent health and safety policies may be, which is why it is critical to implement an efficient digital safety solution and lone worker protection program.
An effective lone worker protection solution can significantly decrease liability for workplace injuries and compliance violations, especially the risk of an employee being assaulted during his/her shift. Furthermore, such solutions can boost efficiency by decreasing overtime payments - improving efficiency and productivity while saving costs at the same time.
With SHEQSY, managers can monitor lone workers in real-time and set geofence boundaries that automatically notify them if a security officer strays outside of his/her patrol area, helping reduce overtime expenses while more evenly distributing shifts and decreasing staff fatigue.
personal alarm Guardians can use a lone worker protection app to send out duress alarms when their safety or that of others is imminently at risk, by pressing an "Emergency" button within it. This discreet panic button is designed for use under extreme conditions when personal safety or that of others are threatened immediately, alerting a monitoring system which can then trigger emergency protocols like automatic calling of emergency contacts, escalated incident reports or dispatching of manned response vehicles.
Lone worker protection solutions may also include two-way communication tools that enable managers to check in with lone workers about their wellbeing, such as status checks or polls. This allows managers to detect any signs of stress, illness or dissatisfaction before an incident takes place and helps employers meet OSHA requirements regarding checking on lone workers.
