By TapOkie Work Editorial - practical lone worker safety for small UK teams.
Start with who works alone
List roles that involve solo visits, empty properties, remote sites, or evening outreach. Include contractors and volunteers if they work under your control.
Identify realistic harms
Violence, accidents, medical events, and "nobody noticed for hours" are the usual themes. Your controls should match the risk - not a brochure.
Choose monitoring that people will use
The best system is the one workers actually check into. False alarms destroy trust. TapOkie Work warns before sessions expire so alerts stay meaningful. Try the ROI calculator.
