Monitoring services for Lone Workers
Working alone in remote locations or with unfamiliar people leaves your staff vulnerable to violent or dangerous situations - and your business at risk.
WORKSAFE is a highly responsive, reliable and cost effective monitoring service for staff working alone. From as little as £2.20 per week per person, you can ensure your staff feel protected and are monitored when they are at work in vulnerable or isolated situations. No specialist equipment or complicated training is required, just a standard mobile phone and a pin number.
As an employer, you have a duty of care to ensure that the risks to your lone working staff are minimised. Failure to do so could lead to court action, fines and tribunals.
Lone workers also suffer from higher incidents of stress-related illness, physical injuries and low morale. So ensuring that your employees feel safe and protected is not only good for your staff; it's good for business.
Incidents reported to the H&S Executive include:
- A mugging whilst walking from a train station to a hotel
- A social worker assaulted in a client's home
- Drivers subjected to assaults, car-jacking and road rage
- Claims advisers held hostage by unhappy claimants
- A tradesperson receiving threatening calls and text messages
