By TapOkie Work Editorial - practical lone worker safety for small UK teams.
Why this matters
Under the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974, employers must take reasonably practicable steps to protect employees - including people who work alone. HSE guidance expects you to assess lone working risks and put controls in place.
What "reasonably practicable" looks like for small teams
You do not need a call centre to demonstrate duty of care. You do need a clear process: who is working alone, how they check in, who is alerted if something is missed, and records you can show an inspector or insurer.
How TapOkie Work helps
TapOkie Work gives managers a live board of visits, missed check-out alerts, SOS, escalation, and exportable history. See features and pricing - monthly, no contract.
