Work Alone Service

In 2000, employer requirements for employees working alone were added to the General Safety Regulation Act. Employers have the responsibility of minimizing and eliminating risks where there employees are working alone. The legislation requires employers to perform these actions:

  • Conduct a hazard assessment to identify safety hazards in the workplace
  • Implement safety measures reducing risk to workers from identified hazards
  • Ensure that training is provided to workers
  • Provide an effective way of communicating with employees while they are working alone
The Select Answering Service can help you comply with this legislation. Select Answering Service provides communications service for employees who work alone. Here's how a typical operator supported work alone program works:

  • Your employee calls us and signs on for duty
  • The next check-in time is set either by company policy or by the employee based on degree of risk. (Usual intervals are 1-hour, 2-hour, 1/2 day, full day. Intervals may vary if the employee is working at multiple sights during the day.)
  • If an employee fails to check in a pre-planned company procedure is followed. This is a series of escalating steps: attempt to contact the employee, contact supervisors or managers if unsuccessful, and so on.
  • If desired, we will take the initiative and contact your employees as per your policies.
