      Lone worker Information

      Requested Sun 02 December 2018
      Responded Fri 25 January 2019

      I am writing to request information under the freedom of information Act 2000. In order to make this as quick and painless as possible for your department, I have been very specific in my request regarding lone worker solutions that you may have procured. Please can you provide me with answers to the following:

       

      ·         How many lone workers does your organisation have?

      ·         How many lone worker devices were purchased as part of your existing provision?

       

      Do you have an existing contract in place?

       

      If No:

       

      ·         Who is responsible for health, safety and risk management of your staff?

       

      If Yes:

       

      ·         What was the actual value of the contract awarded?

      ·         When was it awarded?

      ·         How long is the contract?

      ·         Who is the incumbent supplier?

      ·         Who were the other unsuccessful bidders?

      ·         Is there a potential extension applicable to this existing contract?

      ·         Are you applying that extension?

      ·         Who will be responsible for writing the specification?

       

       


      Response

      Hastings Borough Council have 8 lone workers who patrol the town during their working week, we also have a number of members of staff who lone work from time to time when undertaking site visits or attending exhibitions.

      We do not use a specific lone worker device other than a company mobile phone along with GPRS radios for the 8 lone workers as mentioned above.

      Health and Safety is the responsibility of the service manager for that area.
