If you employ or manage someone who is required to work in isolation from others or without direct supervision, then it’s essential that the risks to their health and safety are carefully managed.

Whilst working unaccompanied isn’t inherently dangerous, lone workers do face certain risks that other employees in busy environments are unlikely to encounter.
