Safety comes first. Security and protecting workers are critical in any industry segment, but this is especially true in remote locations and those doing minor repair work alone. Protecting these workers will be essential, and there is technology to help.

According to a new research report from http://berginsight.com/ Berg Insight, the market for lone worker protection solutions and services in Europe and North America is forecasted to grow from £100 million in 2016 to about £220 million in 2021.

Market drivers include occupational safety regulations, increasing employee insurance costs, and higher awareness of lone workers' risks. A growing number of countries are adopting rules that specifically address the safety of lone workers.

Some subcontractors do work independently. For instance, some roofers, as do some electrical and utility workers, do minor repairs alone. Keeping them safe will be critical. It is where technology enters the equation.

Lone workers rely primarily on dedicated G.P.S. location devices featuring alarm buttons or smartphone apps to send alarms. The app segment overgrew in 2016 and is growing faster than the device segment. Enforcement of legislation in Western Europe and pockets of America is expanding, resulting in many greenfield customers adopting lone-worker safety solutions, especially within the private sector. Dedicated devices and smartphone apps will likely coexist on the market for isolated worker protection services due to the broad spectrum of risks across different jobs involving working alone.

The penetration of lone worker protection services based on monitored unattended worker devices and smartphone apps remains very low in Europe and America, with an estimated 2% at the end of 2016.

Even in leading markets like the U.K., the penetration of monitored services has only reached about 5% of the total workforce of lone workers. Nevertheless, developing isolated worker protection solutions can help some contractors stay safe when doing all their jobs.

Employers also have a legal duty of care to protect and secure the safety and health of their lone workers from physical and verbal abuse.

We provide Global lone worker solutions at Reading (Berkshire) Lone Worker Solutions. However, if you or your employees work in remote, International, or potentially volatile situations and a problem arise, you will want help to arrive as quickly as possible.

The Health and Safety Executive (H.S.E.) describes loan workers as "working alone without close or direct supervision." It doesn't necessarily mean they work alone but spend much time without close interaction with colleagues. As a result, international Lone workers may be at greater risk of violence or accidents.

Whether your teams work indoors at extensive warehouse facilities, outdoors in complex construction sites, in remote locations, or while driving to and from work—Spetsnaz Security International, Ltd. has developed and manufactured the perfect emergency response solutions for your International Lone workers.

Spetsnaz Security International, Ltd. provides safety response systems for numerous industries, from crew members and operators to supervisors and engineers, regardless of location.

Indoor Facilities

Manufacturing warehouses, correctional facilities, grain terminals, wastewater treatment, and power plants can be some of the most dangerous places to work in the world—even taking your employees underground.

To get the job done, your teams work against the clock—often in noisy, fast-paced, high-risk, and high-stress environments that require long hours where tasks often pull them out of sight and the sound of others. As a result, these employees immediately become International Lone workers, isolated from their colleagues and risking their lives if an incident occurs.
