MAN DOWN & LONE WORKER DEVICE


LONE WORKERS – YOUR HEALTH AND SAFETY

You’re a lone worker if you work by yourself without close or direct
supervision.

The facts about workplace injuries and ill-health

Latest available HSE workplace injury figures are for 2018-19. In that year, 147
workers died at work (up from 144 in 2017-18), of which over a quarter were
falls from a height. As for non-fatal injuries, there are two sources of
information. The Reporting of Injuries, Diseases and Dangerous Occurrences
Regulations 2013 (RIDDOR) is a self-reporting system which logged 69,208
injuries in 2018-19 (down from 71,062 injuries in 2017-18). But the broader
measure is the Labour Force Survey, which showed 581,000 injuries during the
year (up from 555,000 in 2017-18). Of non-fatal injuries, some 37% were slips,
trips and falls (whether on the same level or falls from a height). Handling,
lifting and carrying accounted for 20%, while acts of violence caused 8% of
these injuries. Together, non-fatal workplace injuries caused the loss of an
estimated 4.7 million working days across 2018-19.

The effects of ill health are even more striking. Figures show 1.4 million
working people suffering from a work-related illness in 2018-19. Of these, just
under half a million were new diagnoses. Stress, anxiety or depression accounted
for 44% of the total, with musculoskeletal disorders accounting for a further
37%. As a result, an estimated 23.5 million working days were lost due to
work-related ill-health during the year.


WHAT YOUR EMPLOYER MUST DO

Your employer has specific duties to protect you as a lone worker. This also
applies if you’re working for them as a contractor, a freelancer or are
self-employed.

It is estimated that up to 8 million people in the United Kingdom are lone
workers. That’s 22% of the UK working population.

Lone working is defined by the Health and Safety Executive as those who work by
themselves without close or direct supervision. This doesn’t mean that the
worker is physically alone, it means they are in a separate location to the rest
of their team or manager. Some workers may be alone such as fixed location
workers, however, many work with the general public.

Statistics from the British Crime Survey have indicated that as many as 150 lone
workers are attacked every day. The victims of attacks are varied and take place
across a number of industries and job roles where people can be found working
alone. This statistic includes both physical and verbal attacks.

With as many as 46% of the UK workforce in full-time employment counting
themselves as lone workers, the number of workers at risk every day is clear.



PROVIDING PERSONAL SAFETY DEVICES IS ONE OF THE MOST EFFECTIVE WAYS OF
PROTECTING LONE WORKERS AND IS THE FIRST CHOICE FOR MANY EMPLOYERS.

The lone worker alarm uses GSM as its means of sending SMS messages, including
two-way voice from and  to programed mobiles. GPS is used for tracking the
user’s location linked via Google Maps.

The lone worker alarm has applications for any persons who work in isolation, or
isolated areas i.e. Manufacturing, Heavy Industry, Councils, Forestry, Emergency
Personnel, and Farmers etc.

The device has a one button SOS, serious fall detection/man down, Geofence, over
speed alert, motion/no motion detection and much more.
