Procedure

The below flow diagram is the suggested process after the emergency button is pressed.

The above process contains gaps. The onus is on the lone-working-member to ensure they personally take all precautions over their own safety such as:

  • make wise choices of which tools to operate when working alone
  • have an independent way to call help (not including the Lone Worker Alarm)
  • know the address of the Hackspace
  • ensure family/Next of kin know where they are and where Hackspace is
