Vancouver, BC: The Cummins Connected Diagnostics application is now available to customers using Geotab's fleet management solution from Blackridge Solutions, the telematics and diesel engine providers have announced.

Ensuring the Safety of your Lone Workers

Working alone can put employees at greater risk if their health or safety is threatened. In most regions, employers have a legal and moral duty to assess the hazards they may face and take every precaution to ensure their safety. Employees in many sectors are required to work alone or at remote or isolated work sites that may increase the risk to their well-being:

Health care providers, social workers, correctional officers are often required to work in homes or other worksites not controlled by their employer
Maintenance workers may be required to work in confined spaces that increase their risk
Forestry, mining, energy, environmental employees and others may be required to work at isolated work sites that are beyond the reach of landline or cellular communications coverage

And because Blackridge Solutions offers solutions that provide a two-way system of communication between safety monitors and employees, it addresses even the most rigorous Occupational Health and Safety, and Work Alone regulations.

It’s a good idea to consult the applicable legislation to ensure you understand your legal duty of care. In the absence of a legal duty of care, we have a moral duty to take every reasonable precaution to protect lone workers.
