Lone Worker Device Monitoring
Lone workers face unique safety challenges from accidents to medical emergencies and assaults. Effective monitoring isn’t just a legal obligation, it’s a vital part of creating a safer, more supportive work environment.
At Almas Industries, we offer two levels of lone worker monitoring to suit your operational needs:
Self-Monitoring with Employer Platform
In partnership with Cuebly, our self-monitoring platform gives businesses full visibility of their lone workers and lets you tailor emergency response protocols. Ideal for companies with in-house resources like first aiders or supervisors ready to act on alerts.
Remote Monitoring via ARC
For higher-risk environments or where in-house support isn’t feasible, our partnership with Corps Monitoring Centre (CMC) delivers 24/7 professional monitoring. CMC’s NSI Gold-certified ARC ensures fast, expert response with BS 8484-compliant protocols—providing the highest level of protection for your lone workers.
Whichever solution you choose, you’re ensuring compliance, building trust, and prioritising the safety of your people.
Additional Factors to Consider When Choosing a Lone Worker Device
Selecting the right lone worker device goes beyond features – it’s about fit, function, and environment. Here are key considerations to guide your decision.
ERGONOMICS
Will the device suit your employee’s daily tasks?
If your team frequently bends, lifts, or handles equipment, bulky devices or lanyards might get in the way. Wearables like safety watches or discreet clips could be a better fit.
COMMUNICATION
Is the device loud and clear enough – or too loud?
Audio quality must match the environment. In a noisy factory, a quiet speaker is useless. In high-risk areas, loud alarms could endanger the worker further. Tailor communication features to the role.
DISCRETION
Can an alert be triggered without drawing attention?
In threatening situations, discretion matters. Devices worn as watches or bracelets offer a covert way to activate an alarm – ideal where visible devices could escalate a confrontation.
GEOLOCATION
Accurate location tracking can be life-saving.
The most effective devices combine GPS, WiFi, and Bluetooth to pinpoint a lone worker’s exact location – indoors or out.
How Do Lone Worker Devices Work
Lone worker device cost
Our lone worker devices, including the popular Safety Watch, are typically provided on a lease and service basis – so there’s no upfront cost. Like a mobile phone contract, the price is spread over the term of the agreement.
The monthly cost depends on:
We’ll tailor a package to suit your needs and budget, with discounts available for multiple units. Every solution includes full setup, configuration, training, and ongoing support from the Almas team – so you get peace of mind with no hidden fees.

Lone Working FAQs
Getting in touch is the best way to get specific questions answered but we’ve put together some information to the most often asked questions on our Lone Worker services and solutions
What is Lone Working
Lone working refers to situations where employees carry out their job duties away from direct supervision or coworkers. This can occur in various settings, such as working from home, travelling between sites, or in remote locations.
In Ireland, where community and cooperation are valued, lone workers may face unique challenges, such as isolation and limited access to immediate support. Ensuring their safety and well-being through proper risk assessments, communication systems, and personal safety devices is vital for their protection.
Who are Lone Workers?
Lone workers are individuals who carry out their job duties in isolation, without direct supervision or close contact with colleagues.
These workers operate independently, often facing unique risks, such as delayed emergency response or limited access to help in case of incidents.
What is Lone Worker Legislation?
Lone worker legislation refers to the legal duties employers in Ireland have to protect employees who work alone. While lone working isn’t illegal, it is subject to strict health and safety requirements under The Safety, Health and Welfare at Work Act 2005 and The General Application Regulations 2007.
These laws require employers to assess risks, implement control measures, provide training, and ensure lone workers have a means to call for help if needed.
