Customer Feedback
Why is Lone Worker Training Important?
Lone workers face unique and increased risks because of the isolated nature of their work. They must be able to manage situations independently and without immediate backup or emergency assistance when something goes wrong.
Employers have a legal duty to properly assess and control the risks their lone workers face. As part of this duty, employers must provide suitable information, instruction and training to their lone working staff that covers hazards and safeguards specific to isolated work.
Lone Worker Training fulfils these requirements and enables lone workers to protect themselves more effectively.
About Lone Worker Training
According to the British Safety Council, there are approximately 6 to 8 million lone workers. This figure includes workers in security, construction and retail – all industries where lone workers consistently face high levels of risk.
This awareness-level course is designed for lone workers in any sector. It makes users aware of lone working hazards and measures to reduce or eliminate risk. It also looks at conducting dynamic risk assessments to identify and control hazards unique to the user’s work environment and duties.

This includes construction, healthcare, security, maintenance, field services, retail, transport, and remote or hybrid office roles.
