Duty of Care - Protecting Lone Workers Overseas 

20-21 February 2013 at Millennium Gloucester Hotel, London Kensington. 

The GAP team will be exhibiting at this year’s Duty of Care, Protecting Lone Workers Overseas Conference. This is an excellent conference that looks at the rising issues that companies face when their employees are working overseas.

When employees work across borders, duty of care involves risk management beyond the usual health and safety requirements of a familiar environment. As workforces become more mobile, fulfilling duty of care can seem like a daunting task for employers, which is made more challenging by the inconsistent standards across the globe. 

Many companies are not aware of the legal requirements for duty of care provision; this conference looks to educate and provide the resources that employers/employees may need.

The GAP team will be exhibiting at the conference; offering a satellite based lone worker safety solution, for companies who are looking to keep their workforce safe.  Our solution is ideal for protecting lone workers, especially overseas and working in remote areas.  With a range of options available, our platform can keep your workforce safe, anywhere on earth, with 24x7x365 operator response.

Delegates will be able to ensure they adequately understand the legal implications and liabilities of managing overseas workers and that they are meeting their Duty of Care requirements.
