Are you a registered Charity?
Are you one of the over 170,000 registered charities in England and Wales (as of 2022), that do some amazing work preventing or relieving poverty? Advancing the arts, culture, heritage, or science? Aiming to benefit education, health, environment, or animals?
Thank you!
Are you a Charity Trustee?
As you are aware, all Charity trustees have a legal obligation to review and assess risks faced by their Charity and for those working or volunteering within it.
Do you have LONE WORKERS within your organisation?
HSE states that “Lone workers are those who work by themselves without close or direct supervision”. For how long or how often doesn’t matter.
Trustees have an important role, including decision-making regarding the everyday risks faced, how to respond and manage them. Prevention is key. Being able to move forward with your strategic planning, knowing that you are safeguarding your lone working staff and lone working volunteers is something we can help with.
Incidents don’t have to be serious to have an effect on staff and the organisation. A minor trip or simply getting locked out/in when you’re on your own, can suddenly become a significant concern with an ongoing impact.
Are you a Charity worker or volunteer?
Thank-you for all that you are doing to help your chosen Charity reach its goals.
Almost every Charity has staff / volunteers working for them that work on their own, even occasionally. You might be working alone offering:
-
- care within a home
- working in a retail shop
- collecting donations (goods and money)
- helping at fundraising events
- working in the office or from home
Working alone can be a HIGH RISK to you and to your Charity. Your employer/Charity organisation has specific duties to protect you as a lone worker.
Do you feel safe working alone, and do you feel protected?
We are aware that whilst you are having a positive impact, there are occasions that you could be at a higher risk if you’re working alone:
-
- abuse from the public
- abuse from those you are trying to help
- dangerous working conditions
- driving between collection points
- being locked in/out
- manual handling
- simple slips and trips
The law isn’t different just because you work within a Charity. A Charity is responsible for lone workers safety and well-being. Please consider discussing any concerns with your Charity coordinator and ask that this is brought up in the next Trustee Meeting. We are offering help, a special lower price for all registered charities.
How can the risks be reduced using MyTeamSafe?
MyTeamSafe recognise that charities still need to ensure they cover their legal duty of care obligations BUT within tight money constraints. We are here to help.
We are focused on providing a highly affordable, simple, automated Lone Worker App. A Lone Worker solution that is an automated, set and forget safety system, that protects lone workers and the Charity by ensuring that there’s a simple yet robust lone working process in place. Reassuring staff/volunteers that the organisation carers as well as protecting the charity by meeting their duty of care
For example, with the MyTeamSafe app the Lone Worker is notified to “check-in” at a predefined interval (set by the organisation). If they don’t check-in, then their supervisor or buddy is automatically informed, providing contact details and a last location. So, they can decide what to do next. Responding correctly to the situation.
