Lone working refers to any job role where an employee carries out tasks alone, without direct supervision or colleagues nearby. This includes healthcare professionals, retail staff, construction workers, housing association reps, local government staff and logistics drivers. Lone workers face higher safety risks due to the lack of immediate assistance in case of an emergency. Implementing a lone worker safety solution such as a discreet lone worker device or safety app can significantly reduce these risks and support duty of care for lone workers.

‍

UK employers have a legal obligation to protect lone workers under the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 and The Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999. This includes conducting lone worker risk assessments, providing appropriate training, and ensuring effective emergency communication. Meeting these UK lone worker legislation requirements is key to achieving lone worker compliance. SoloProtect’s safety technology supports this through 24/7 monitoring, Red Alert alarms, and geolocation tracking — forming a reliable and proactive lone worker safety system.

A lone worker safety system includes a personal safety device or lone worker safety app, designed to protect employees who work alone. These systems may include panic alarms, Man Down detection, GPS tracking, and scheduled check-ins. They should be used by employees in high-risk roles, including construction workers, social care professionals, retail staff, and remote field operatives. The system helps reduce risk, improve emergency response, and support your organisation’s commitment to lone worker compliance.

Choosing the best lone worker protection depends on your industry, specific job roles, and risk exposure. Consider whether the worker is based indoors, outdoors, or in remote areas, and whether public interaction is a factor. SoloProtect offers some of the best lone worker devices available, including:

• The SoloProtect ID Touch, a discreet lone worker device that looks like an ID badge
• The SoloProtect Mobile app, a flexible, fully featured lone worker safety app
• The SoloProtect Curve and Shield, robust wearables ideal for physical roles
• The SoloProtect ID Classic and Go devices, our 2G lone worker safety devices

Our team will help assess your needs and recommend the most appropriate device or app to ensure compliance and safety.

Lone workers face a variety of risks, including physical assault, slips, trips, falls, medical incidents, and environmental hazards such as low lighting or extreme weather. Without immediate support, these situations can escalate. A lone alert system, such as those provided by SoloProtect, ensures workers can raise an alarm instantly. Our lone worker safety technology provides quick access to emergency support, enabling employers to meet their responsibilities and keep staff safe.
