Overview
What this RAVS document does
A worker alone or in isolation has no one nearby to call for help, so an incident that would be minor with a crew can become serious. A hiring client that configures this element wants to see that a contractor identifies the risks and has a working check-in system.
This document states your company's working alone program in the structure an ISNetworld reviewer expects: identifying the risks of working alone or in isolation, an effective communication system, an alternate form of communication where electronic communication is not practicable, and the written check-in procedure. Each point ties back to The Occupational Health and Safety Regulations. The file arrives in editable Word format - add your company name, confirm the company-specific details, and upload.
What the reviewer verifies
What ISNetworld checks
ISNetworld does not just check that a working alone answer exists. A reviewer verifies the document addresses each requirement the hiring client has configured. For this element, that typically means confirming the document covers:
- A written working alone program with purpose and scope
- Identifying the risks of working alone or at an isolated place of employment
- An effective communication system suited to the risks
- An alternate form of communication where electronic communication is not practicable
- A written check-in procedure with a designated contact person and set intervals
- An escalation step if the lone worker cannot be reached

Who it is for
Who needs this RAVS
This RAVS is for Saskatchewan contractors whose hiring clients require the working alone element in ISNetworld, Avetta, or ComplyWorks. It applies to companies whose workers attend sites alone or in isolation - field service, inspection, maintenance, security, and remote oil and gas, utility, and forestry work. If a hiring client's pre-qualification configuration flags working alone, this is the document the reviewer is waiting on.
Practical guidance
How to pass the working alone review the first time
- Use the Saskatchewan version. The document is written to the Saskatchewan OHS legislation, which is what a Saskatchewan hiring client expects.
- Make the check-in real. A reviewer wants to see a written procedure with a contact person, set intervals, and an escalation step if the worker cannot be reached.
- Identify the risks with workers. The document states the risks of working alone are identified in consultation with the committee, representative, or workers. A reviewer expects that consultation.
