Course content

Our lone working training addresses the unique challenges to your personal safety when working independently, helping you take practical steps to minimise risks and work with greater confidence.

Thousands of people work in isolation daily without colleagues nearby for protection, advice or assistance. This lone working course recognises whether you're serving customers, interacting with the public, or working entirely alone, the absence of support creates distinct vulnerabilities. These safety risks become particularly significant in emergencies - imagine a robbery leaving a lone worker traumatised, injured, and unable to return to work, while also damaging the business financially and reputationally.

These lone working training courses equip you with essential strategies to protect both your wellbeing and the business you represent. You'll learn practical techniques to reduce risks when working alone, effectively safeguarding yourself and your workplace while developing the confidence to handle challenging situations independently.
