Lone Worker Protection FAQs
What is a Lone Worker Timed Welfare Session?
Our timed routine welfare check-in sessions (RWC) are our pro-active approach to lone worker protection and monitoring. A lone worker will place themselves into an RWC session on the lone worker app by choosing a set time which they need to check-in by to tell the monitoring team that they are ok. If the lone worker fails to check in once set the clock counts down and the timer runs out, then an alarm is automatically raised.
How does MobileLWP’s Panic Alarm work?
Panic alarms are raised on our lone worker app with a discreet and simple press on a set button (usually volume or standby buttons) on the lone worker’s smartphone. This will then automatically raise an alarm to head office via our web-based monitoring portal with the name, location and time of the alert. It will also dial an emergency telephone number (set by the company or lone worker) so that they can listen into the situation and understand the severity.
Is your lone worker protection solution BS8484 accredited?
We regularly test our solutions against the latest mobile smartphone handsets and have a list of recommended handsets that have been tested and approved to the lone working British Standard 8484 accreditation. If you wish to check if your handset is compatible with MobileLWP and BS8484 then please contact us here.

We required a smartphone application for convenience and location accuracy and Crystal Ball fitted the bill.

General Manager, Co-operative FuneralcareCrystal Ball’s lone worker protection solution has offered peace of mind to all our staff and the management at The Co-operative Funeralcare. It has also addressed relevant health and safety legislations and made our organisation more compliant.
Lynne Herbert
CEO, Dewis Centre for Independent LivingWe have used Crystal ball for our lone workers for at least 10 years now. A panic alert can be sent back to the office if faced with a challenging situation and it helps keep a track of where the lone workers are and if they fail to cancel their welfare at the end of a meeting, alerting us to the fact there may be a problem. It gives the company and the lone workers a certain amount of peace of mind, that they are being cared for whilst away from the office.
