Lone workers may be found in a fixed facility, or at a remote site, away from a typical base. Many different industries employ lone workers -- construction, utilities, maintenance, agriculture, real estate, delivery, security, and numerous other sectors.
Who is looking out for workers who are alone off-site? The law requires employers to protect their workers wherever they may be. Protecting lone workers comes with some challenges, but it can be done efficiently and successfully to keep every employee safe on the job.
