Do not fill this in!Lone worker policy is the set of company procedures and rules that help to ensure lone workers have adequate protection. It’s different from the general health and safety policies in that it focuses on the specific risks of working alone. In order to create a comprehensive policy, companies should start by identifying their lone workers and then conducting a risk assessment of all work activities undertaken in isolation. [https://notes.io/wvjxS man down alarm devices] Once this has been done, companies can then put in place control measures based on the risks identified and make sure that employees know about these new procedures.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />When identifying lone workers, it’s important to include not just the obvious roles such as delivery drivers or at home health care workers but also those who work alone intermittently. For example, hotel staff that perform maintenance may occasionally be left alone and so should be included in the policy. It’s also important to identify how much supervision lone workers will receive while at work. This will likely be remote for most lone workers but could be face to face for certain roles if it is required.<br /><br />When it comes to implementing the lone worker policy, companies should try to foster engagement by inviting lone workers to meetings or workshops where they can discuss the policy and how it will affect them.
