Work alone? Maintain safety and regulatory compliance
A lone, female liquor store employee stands helpless as she’s robbed by regulars. An electrician sits quiet and alone in the woods near Fort McMurray, knocked unconscious by an exposed power cable. A truck driver ploughs on through the night, knowing he should stop, knowing he’s behind deadline. Alberta has tight restrictions around employees who work alone, and the consequences of non-compliance, both financial and human, can be drastic.
Any worker put in charge of money or company resources while working alone faces a number of risks foreign to busy team environments. In some situations, it is illegal to work alone. In many situations, restrictions around working alone are specific and regulated.
