This policy should be unique to your organisation and the tasks that need to be carried out. However, the following areas can be used as a starting point:

• Why the policy is in place
• When formal risk assessments will be carried out
• When workers will receive relevant safety training
• What support is available if workers experience an accident, injury, illness, or assault while working alone
• What communication methods will be used for situations related to lone working
• What technology and monitoring systems are to be used to aid lone worker safety
