Understand
Employers must ensure the welfare, safety, and health of employees at all times, including when they work alone or outside normal working hours. Lone working will be avoided where reasonably practicable, but where it cannot be avoided, suitable controls must be in place.
Lone working includes any situation where an employee works without colleagues immediately available. This may include opening or closing shifts, working in isolated areas, or tasks performed outside normal hours. Risk assessments must specifically consider the additional hazards of working alone, including inability to summon help in an emergency, increased vulnerability to violence, and tasks that should not be performed alone.
Controls may include check-in procedures, communication systems, restricted task lists, and arrangements for regular contact. Ongoing monitoring ensures that lone working procedures are followed and remain effective, and arrangements should be reviewed when circumstances change or incidents occur.
