Lorker Worker Safety UK - FAQs
While getting in touch with us directly is the quickest way to get tailored advice, we’ve compiled answers to some of the most frequently asked questions about our Lone Worker solutions below.
What is a Lone Worker?
A lone worker is someone who carries out their job without close or direct supervision, often working by themselves. This could include employees working remotely, out of hours, or in field-based roles such as maintenance, delivery, healthcare, or security.
Why is Lone Worker Safety Important?
Lone workers face increased risks, from accidents and medical emergencies to the threat of assault, simply because help may not be immediately available. Prioritising their safety helps prevent serious incidents, supports legal compliance with health and safety regulations, and protects both employee wellbeing and business continuity.
What Are the Common Risks Faced by Lone Workers?
Lone workers can encounter a range of risks due to the nature of working alone, including:
- Health Emergencies – Sudden medical issues like heart attacks, strokes, or severe allergic reactions.
- Accidents – Injuries from slips, trips, falls, or incidents involving equipment or machinery.
- Assaults – Threats or physical attacks, especially when working in isolated locations or during unsociable hours.
- Environmental Hazards – Exposure to dangerous substances, extreme temperatures, or challenging weather conditions.
What Are the Legal Requirements for Lone Worker Safety?
Employers in the UK have a legal duty of care to protect the health, safety, and welfare of all employees – including those who work alone. This means carrying out suitable and sufficient risk assessments, providing proper training, and putting appropriate safety measures in place. While there’s no specific legislation just for lone workers, their protection falls under the Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974 and the Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999. Staying up to date with relevant guidance from the HSE is essential.
How Can Organisations Ensure Lone Worker Safety?
To protect lone workers effectively, organisations should take a proactive and structured approach, including:
- Risk Assessments
Carry out regular risk assessments to identify potential dangers and put suitable control measures in place. - Training
Ensure lone workers receive thorough training on safety procedures, emergency protocols, and how to use any safety equipment or devices. - Communication Tools
Provide reliable communication devices so lone workers can stay in contact with managers or support teams throughout their shift. - Monitoring Systems
Use monitoring solutions such as GPS tracking, lone worker devices, or automated check-in systems to maintain visibility and respond quickly if needed. - Emergency Response Plans
Develop clear emergency response procedures tailored to the risks lone workers may face, and review them regularly.
- Risk Assessments
What Technologies Can Improve Lone Worker Safety?
Modern technology plays a vital role in keeping lone workers safe. Key solutions include:
- Personal Safety Devices
Wearable devices equipped with panic buttons, GPS tracking, and two-way audio to raise the alarm and share real-time location in an emergency. - Mobile Apps
Lone worker safety apps that support timed check-ins, GPS tracking, and discreet panic alerts from a smartphone. - Remote Monitoring Systems
Centralised systems that allow supervisors to monitor lone workers’ status and location in real time, ensuring rapid response when needed. - Automated Check-In Services
Scheduled check-in systems that require workers to confirm their safety at set intervals, automatically triggering alerts if a check-in is missed.
- Personal Safety Devices
How Much Does the Safety Watch Cost?
Our Lone Worker Safety Watch is typically provided on a lease and service agreement, meaning there’s no large upfront cost. Instead, the price is spread across the term of the contract—similar to how a mobile phone contract works.
The monthly cost depends on the level of service you choose, such as:
- 24/7 ARC (Alarm Receiving Centre) monitoring
- Access to the employer platform
- Indoor location beacons for enhanced tracking
We also offer discounts for multiple units, making it more cost-effective for teams. Every package includes full set-up, configuration, and ongoing support from Almas Industries.
If you’d like a personalised quote, just get in touch and we’ll be happy to help.
Are There Different Ways to Pay?
Yes, we offer two flexible payment options to suit your budget:
- Outright Purchase – You can buy the watch and any accessories upfront, then pay a monthly fee for onboarding, support, and ongoing service.
- Lease Agreement – Alternatively, you can spread the cost of the device over the term of a lease, bundling it with the service fee so there’s no upfront cost.
In short, you can choose to pay monthly with no initial outlay if that works better for your organisation.
Are There Any Additional Costs for Accessories or Advanced Features?
The safety watch comes as standard with a charger, watch strap, and lanyard. However, if you require additional accessories—such as wall-mounted multi-chargers, arm or ankle bands, or belt clips—these will incur an extra cost.
If you’d like to enable indoor location tracking, we’ll carry out a site survey to determine how many Bluetooth beacons are needed and provide a tailored quote for these.
All standard features and alerts are included in the monthly service fee, with no hidden charges.
Is There a Minimum Term?
Yes, the minimum term depends on the services you select and how you choose to pay.
If you buy the device outright, there’s a minimum 12-month subscription for ARC (Alarm Receiving Centre) monitoring.
We also offer service subscriptions ranging from 3 to 5 years, depending on your needs.
If you lease the safety watch, the minimum term is typically 36 months, which includes all service, maintenance, and support throughout the agreement.
We’re happy to tailor the package to suit your organisation—just get in touch to discuss your options.
Are there subscription fees associated with using the device and its services? What does the subscription fee include?
Yes, there is a monthly subscription fee, but it’s all-inclusive and tailored to the services your organisation requires. Rather than dealing with multiple suppliers or hidden charges, you’ll pay a single monthly fee directly to Almas Industries.
Depending on your chosen package, the subscription can include:
- Roaming SIM card charges – ensuring reliable connectivity across different networks.
- Employer Platform – access to a secure portal to view device status, generate reports, and configure alerts or scenarios.
- ARC Monitoring – 24/7 Alarm Receiving Centre response for fast intervention in emergencies.
Almas Technical Support – covering onboarding, configuration, refresher training, and ongoing technical assistance.
We’ll work with you to build a package that fits your needs—no unnecessary extras, just what’s right for your team.
