How to implement a lone worker safety system for: a step-by-step checklist for local government

A step-by-step checklist for WHS, HR, and operations leaders in local government

Rangers, compliance officers and inspectors are on site every day, often alone, sometimes facing hostile members of the public with no colleagues around. Knowing you need a better system is one thing. Knowing exactly how to build one is another. 

This free checklist walks you through every stage of implementing a lone worker safety system, from assessing where your current gaps are to selecting the right technology, rolling it out across your workforce and keeping the records your council needs at audit time.

Use this checklist to: 

  • Map exactly which roles in your organisation are operating as lone workers 
  • Define the non-negotiable capabilities your system needs before you start evaluating vendors 
  • Know what to look for in welfare timers, duress alerts and 24/7 monitoring 
  • Plan a rollout that gets genuine adoption, not just a policy nobody reads 
  • Build the auditable record your council needs to demonstrate duty of care
