Lone workers face a unique safety challenge: when something goes wrong, they’re often completely on their own.
Whether you’re a community care worker visiting a client’s home, a security guard locking up late, or a delivery driver in an unfamiliar neighbourhood—help isn’t always just seconds away.
The danger? Too many employers underestimate the risks. Lone working isn’t just about slips, trips, and falls—it’s about handling unpredictable people in unpredictable situations.

Effective lone working training isn’t a tick-box exercise. It’s about giving staff the skills to anticipate hazards, trust their instincts, communicate clearly under pressure, and disengage safely when necessary.
Your team deserves more than a handbook—they deserve the confidence and capability to get home safe, every time.
Book your team onto NVC Awareness’ Lone Working Safety Course and meet your legal and moral duty of care.
