HEALTH & SAFETY EVENT 2025 REVIEW
132% RISE IN ATTACKS ON LONE WORKERS – ARE YOUR STAFF SAFE?
SoloProtect provides lone worker safety devices and apps to thousands of professionals across 17 countries. With over 370,000 lone, remote, and high-risk workers relying on its technology, SoloProtect helps safeguard employees from social and environmental risks.
At this year’s Health & Safety Event at the NEC, the company had the opportunity to connect with hundreds of professionals and have meaningful conversations about the growing risks facing lone workers. Many shared first-hand experiences of rising aggression and increasing demand for personal safety measures – reinforcing trends SoloProtect is seeing across its network.
In fact, over the past three years, SoloProtect has recorded a 132% rise in physical attack alerts and a 104% increase in weapon-related incidents, with the highest levels reported in the last six months. The need for reliable, easy- to-use safety technology has never been more apparent.
The SoloProtect intuitive safety devices and apps feature powerful safety functions, including the Red Alert Panic Button for emergency escalation, the Man Down Alarm for incapacitation due to a slip, trip, or fall, and Ready2Talk chaperone support to enhance personal security in high- risk situations.
