Lone Worker Safety

Our Lone Worker & Women’s workshops are the ultimate in self-reliant insurance. Designed for those who by the very nature of their work find themselves delivering goods and services to clients, often in situations where they are isolated, alone, vulnerable and without nearby support. We have developed a program to build your capability to assess, act and self-rescue should the need arise.

If you have ever felt uneasy or scared in your job – this training is for you. When second count, the police are only minutes away. Be your own response. Invest in yourself.
