This lone working risk assessment template helps organizations protect employees who work alone by systematically identifying hazards, evaluating controls, and documenting findings. Managers and safety officers can list lone workers, verify medical fitness, outline supervision and communication methods, and confirm training and competency. The checklist covers site security, access and egress, emergency alerts, first aid, and welfare facilities. It also highlights common risks such as electrical equipment, slips and trips, chemicals, heavy machinery, and manual handling. Capture notes, attach photos, assign corrective actions to responsible teams, and complete reports with digital signatures to strengthen compliance and safety outcomes.
