Reasons to Remember Your Lone Worker Solution
Lone workers are more vulnerable because they work out of sight and have little supervision from colleagues, which makes getting assistance in an emergency more difficult. Having your lone worker device with you ensures that you’ll be able to get the help you need when you need it most.
Lone worker risks:
- Verbal abuse
- Physical abuse
- Medical emergency
- Injury
- Working from height
- Extreme weather
- Remote environments

Physical Attack – User Story
