Protect Isolated Workers. Prevent Risks. Get OSHA-Compliant Lone Worker Safety Training Today.
Lone Worker Safety Training equips employees with the tools and strategies needed to stay safe while working alone, in isolated locations, or in unpredictable field environments. This course focuses on situational awareness, threat recognition, communication protocols, and emergency response planning.
Ideal for industries where supervision is limited or delayed response is likely, this training reduces the risk of injury, assault, and miscommunication, empowering workers to make smart, safe decisions on their own.
Why Lone Worker Safety Training Matters
Lone workers face increased exposure to violence, accidents, and medical emergencies, often with no one around to help. In 2013, a high-profile incident involving an attacked real estate agent triggered widespread adoption of lone worker safety protocols across multiple industries.
Since implementing formal training and safety technologies, organizations have seen a 30% reduction in lone worker incidents. OSHA encourages proactive planning and training to meet employer obligations under the general duty clause.
