Following the recent publication of the new lone worker standard BS8484, the Association of Chief Police Officers for England, Wales and Northern Ireland (ACPO) have confirmed that the standard has been included within its recently amended Alarms Response Policy that restricts police response to only those service providers operating in compliance.
ACPO will now begin a series of national police trials commencing on 1st February 2010 with a small number of lone worker service providers complying with the policy. Argyll, the UK’s leader in lone worker protection services, is pleased to announce that it will participate.
