How to Choose the Best Lone Worker Solution for Your Business in 2025
Lone working is on the rise across Ireland, and so are the risks that come with it. Whether you have staff in healthcare, construction, utilities, or security, ensuring their safety is not just a legal obligation—it’s a moral one too.
According to the Health and Safety Authority (HSA), workplace fatalities in Ireland remain a serious concern, with 33 recorded deaths in 2024. Shockingly, while agriculture accounts for just 4% of the workforce, it represents over one-third of these fatalities.
Meanwhile, reports indicate a 132% increase in physical attacks on lone workers over the past three years, with weapon-related incidents up by 104%. These numbers highlight the urgent need for proper lone worker safety measures.
