As part of our ongoing strategy to bring new and relevant products to our customers and their mobile workforce, Autosonic has partnered with SitexOrbis Limited, market leader in the provision of Code5® lone worker protection solutions.
Employers have a responsibility for the health, safety and welfare at work of all of their employees. With stringent health and safety legislation & the introduction of the Corporate Manslaughter Act introduced in 2008, many companies and public bodies are now looking at cost effective ways of reducing risk for their more vulnerable lone working staff.

Who are lone workers and what jobs do they do?

Lone workers are those who work by themselves without close or direct
supervision. They may be found in a wide range of situations, such as:

People in fixed establishments
People working alone in premises, eg in small workshops, petrol stations, kiosks or shops• People who work from home
People working separately from others, eg in factories, warehouses, some research and training establishments, leisure centres or fairgrounds
People working outside normal hours, eg cleaners and security, production, maintenance or repair staff
Mobile workers working away from their fixed base
Workers involved in construction, plant installation, maintenance and cleaning work, electrical repairs, lift repairs, painting and decorating or vehicle recovery
Agricultural and forestry workers
Service workers, eg rent collectors, postal staff, social workers, home helps, doctors, district nurses, pest control workers, drivers, engineers, architects, estate agents, sales representatives and similar professionals visiting domestic and commercial premises

Code5® from Autosonic & SitexOrbis is an easy-to-use protection service, which uses mobile phones to connect to a 24/7 response centre that monitors dangerous situations and tracks the movements of the worker at risk.
From as little as 18p per day you are able to add this vital functionality and service to your existing mobile devices enabling your lone workers to proactively manage risk and, should the need arise, call for help with just one press of a dedicated panic button.
