Protecting Lone Workers in an Unpredictable Work Environment (On-Demand Webinar)

When employees work alone, an unexpected incident can become more difficult to manage. A fall, sudden health emergency, threatening situation or other workplace incident can leave a worker without immediate access to help.

Join Occupational Health & Safety Editor-in-Chief David Kopf for a practical discussion with Stephen Luke, Safety Consultant for North America & Europe at SoloProtect, and Karen F. Tynan, Shareholder at Ogletree Deakins, on navigating today’s lone worker safety challenges.

Drawing on real-world examples and experience across industries, the discussion explores practical strategies for assessing lone worker risks, building organizational support, developing effective safety programs and using technology as part of a comprehensive approach to protecting workers.

The discussion looks at practical considerations for identifying risks, preparing for unexpected situations and using the right processes and technology to support workers when help isn't immediately available.

In this webinar, you'll learn:

• How to identify lone worker risks and consider where employees may need additional protection
• What to include in a lone worker safety program, from policies and procedures to emergency response
• How to prepare for unpredictable incidents, including situations where a worker may be unable to call for help
• How technology can support lone workers and provide an additional layer of protection
• Practical considerations for employers looking to strengthen their overall workplace safety approach

Watch the webinar on demand to hear the full discussion and take away practical strategies for strengthening your lone worker safety program.
