A lone worker is someone who works on their own, usually in an environment away from an office such as their home or those who work outside their usual work hours.
The protection of lone workers is increasingly important as more people are working away from a company office. In case a lone worker feels threatened, they are given an electronic device that allows them to request assistance and transmit their location. Alarm receiving centres can then transfer all information to the relevant response services.
BS8484 provides guidelines and procedures so that the centres can verify messages received from LWDs (Lone Working Devices) and can assist the appropriate response service. This will also help to prevent any false alarms that they may receive.
To learn more about Lone Working Devices (LWD) Standards and how we can help, contact us, or better still, fill out our contact form so that we can save some of your time by letting us know a little bit about your work first.
