Introduction to Personal Safety for Lone Workers Online Course

  • Approved by IIRSM
Introduction to Personal Safety for Lone Workers Online Training Course

Even with stringent control measures in place, a workforce fully up to speed with health and safety training, and a positive safety culture amongst employees, there will always be risks in a workplace. Often some of the above elements may be inadequate or missing completely, thereby making a place of work extremely dangerous to health with the high potential for accidents.

Whilst this danger is bad enough, there is the small crumb of comfort that in a busy workplace environment there will at least be somebody there to offer some assistance, whether that be administering first aid or going to fetch help. However, many jobs or tasks require a person to work on their own, which can significantly increase the risk to life should this lone worker suffer an accident or get into difficulties with nobody to help them.

This online course acts as an introduction to personal safety for lone workers, and is applicable to those that work alone within business premises, mobile workers and homeworkers. It covers the legal responsibilities of both employers and employees, some of the common security precautions that can be implemented, and the reporting and recording of incidents.

There are multiple choice questions at the end of each unit. Those who successfully achieve the minimum mark required to pass these assessments are rewarded with a printable certificate.

An e-learning course is ideal for those who cannot get time away from the workplace and do not require a tailored course which deals with specific risks. If you do, then an open course or bespoke/in-house course will be much more suitable for your requirements.

The course comprises the following modules:

  • Module 1: Lone Worker and Personal Safety: The Basics
  • Module 2: The Law: Responsibilities
  • Module 3: Assessing the Risks
  • Module 4: Personal Safety Solutions
  • Module 5: Practical Tips to Avoid Conflict
  • Module 6: Reporting and Recording Incidents
