Working Safely For Lone Workers

Small things account for big risks when you are working alone, particularly if the environment is “off-site” and unknown to you. These risks need to be addressed in order to ensure the personal safety of lone workers.

If you are a health visitor, care worker, taxi driver, meter reader, transport or delivery worker, emergency services or security worker, to name but a few, you will need to know the risks associated with your particular job, the practical control measures you can employ, and have a toolbox of strategies at hand to tackle conflict or aggression.
