Lone workers are people who work on their own without “close or direct supervision.” This means that they are exposed to a higher level of risk, and the UK’s lone working legislation provides guidelines on employers’ responsibilities towards lone workers.

Lone workers are people who cannot be seen or heard by colleagues or supervisors. While they work, there is no direct supervision. In addition to injuries or illness, lone workers can also fall victim to violence. It is estimated that there are between 123 and 205 assaults every day on lone workers. Lone worker safety is of concern, because nobody else is present to help them and other people are not aware of any crises they may encounter.
