Employee Check In. Check-in procedures will be implemented to ensure the safety of all employees who work alone. The Employer will assess the degree of risk in any workplace where an employee is required to work alone. The Employer must develop and implement a written procedure for checking the well-being of a worker assigned to work alone or in isolation under conditions which present a risk of disabling injury, if the worker is not able to secure assistance in the event of injury or other misfortune. The assessment will be reviewed by the Joint Safety and Health Committee.
Employee Check In. Check-in procedures will be implemented to ensure the safety of all employees who work alone or in isolation where assistance would not be readily available to the worker. Before a worker is assigned to work alone or in isolation, the Employer must identify any hazards and assess the risk to the worker and eliminate or minimize the risk from the hazard. The Employer must develop and implement a written procedure for checking the well-being of a worker assigned to work alone or in isolation. The procedure must include the time interval between checks and the procedure to follow in the event the worker cannot be contacted, including provisions for emergency rescue. A person must be designated to establish contact with the worker at predetermined intervals and the results must be recorded by the person. A check at the end of the work shift must be done. The procedure(s) must be developed in consultation with the Committee and the worker assigned to work alone or in isolation.
