About
LoneConnect | Smarter Lone Worker Safety
Who We Are
LoneConnect is a UK-based lone worker safety platform helping organisations protect employees working alone, remotely or in potentially vulnerable environments.
Combining a mobile app with a centralised management dashboard, LoneConnect enables workers to report their safety status, raise concerns and request assistance while keeping authorised response teams informed.
Our mission is to make lone worker safety accessible, practical and reliable for organisations of all sizes.
The Problem We're Solving
Every day, people work independently in environments where immediate assistance may not be available. From care workers visiting homes to engineers attending remote sites, lone working presents significant safety challenges.
Workers may face threatening situations, accidents or falls without anyone nearby to help. Traditional methods such as phone calls, manual check-ins and messaging can be unreliable, particularly when someone cannot communicate.
For organisations, limited visibility of lone workers makes it difficult to identify safety concerns and respond promptly.
LoneConnect bridges this gap through improved safety communication, incident awareness and response coordination.
Why We Built LoneConnect
We recognised the need for a modern lone worker safety solution without expensive specialist equipment or complicated processes.
Our goal was to use the technology already available in employees' smartphones to provide essential safety features through one easy-to-use application.
Rather than simply tracking employees, LoneConnect focuses on proactive safety, discreet communication and timely incident response.

• Safety Check-ins: Report status using Safe, Concern or Danger, helping designated contacts identify when support is required.
• SOS and Assistance Requests: Raise alerts or request help directly through the app, notifying authorised organisational contacts.
• Live Location Sharing: Help response teams identify where assistance may be needed during active shifts and incidents.
• Automatic Fall Detection: Uses smartphone motion sensors to identify potential falls and trigger safety alerts.
