Lone Worker Course

Welcome to the Lone Worker Protection course, this e-learning course creates an awareness to educate and inform delegates of lone working and how to become safer whilst working alone from home or away from the office.

Lone workers may face many hazards during their working day; however, many don’t have adequate training to deal with such hazards. Training is particularly important where there is limited supervision to control, guide and help in situations of uncertainty. Training may be critical to avoid panic reactions in unusual situations. Lone workers need to be sufficiently experienced and understand the risks and precautions fully.

This course is modular based and is split into two distinct areas, which are:

• Basic Situational Awareness – Mini Course
• Lone worker awareness – working from home
• Lone worker awareness – working away from the office

This means you can take the full course or individual modules to suit your lone working needs.
