Negotiating the new homeworking landscape - a guide for union reps (April 2021)

Chapter 8

Employee security

[ch 8: page 51]

Homeworkers should never meet with clients in their home. If they have to meet with colleagues or members of the public, the arrangements should be made to meet at the local work office or in a public building. They should have a mobile phone and ensure their office knows where they are, and be informed when they have returned home safely. Homeworkers should also avoid using their personal telephone line for work. The Suzy Lamplugh Trust (www.suzylamplugh.org) has information on personal security.
