Lone Worker Safety Training
Working alone can potentially put staff at greater risk. Therefore it is essential that staff are provided with sufficient training to enable them to deal with increased risks and empower them to take responsibility for their own safety.
This training has been designed to help lone workers perform dynamic risk assessment and raise their awareness of lone working security. The practical issue of when and how to use technology (e.g. Identicom) may also be incorporated where it is in use.
Course Aim:
To enable ‘Lone Workers’ to recognise potential risks to themselves within their work environment and to effectively implement strategies to mitigate those risks.
Course Objectives:
At the end of the training sessions, the delegates will:
ü Have an awareness of the responsibilities of the employer and employee under Health and Safety legislation
ü Understand what defines a ‘Lone Worker’
ü Have a greater awareness of the potential risks faced by a ‘Lone Worker’
ü Know what options are available from a ‘Lone Worker’ perspective in order to mitigate these risks
ü Have an understanding of the term ‘Dynamic Risk Assessment’
ü Know how to complete an individual ‘Dynamic Risk Assessment’
