Lone worker support is a key component of an organisation’s duty of care to its staff. Man Down Australia For employees that work alone, whether social workers, nurses, truck drivers, factory staff, custodians or service technicians, it’s important that they are equipped with a solution to monitor and protect them from the many hazardous scenarios they may encounter while on the job.





To stay compliant with the laws, regulations and industry standards that apply to lone worker safety, an employer needs to ensure their team has an efficient way to request help when needed. The simplest way to do this is by implementing a lone worker protection system, such as Totalmobile’s Protect. This system can be easily deployed and is scalable for organisations of any size, offering a range of features to make it easy to deploy and manage. These include real-time 24-hour monitoring capability, mobility (supports a wide range of devices), connections to emergency services and dispatchers and integration with other technologies.

This can be done by organising virtual meetings or allowing workers to communicate with each other in the office to keep them updated with what is happening within the company. This helps them to avoid feeling disconnected and will minimise their stress levels, which can lead to sickness or even resignation.
