Hi,
I'm currently updating our safety policy with regards to our part time home workers (pc based work). I have already covered the risk assessments there (low) but am asking what if anything else is there to do, as have I missed anything?
Plus what would be suitable items to use for inclusion in the lone working at home worker to top up our policy.
Thanks for any suggestions in advance.

Is the person totally alone during their working time at home, or are they visited by clients at all? Also, do they go out on site visits? If they do, who knows where they have gone and when they are due back and would anyone check up to see if they had returned safely?

The lone home workers are not visiting clients etc and as per INDG73 we do occasional site visits to observe lone working. Is there anything else to consider?
