WORKING ALONE in Plain Sight
Out of Sight Doesn't Mean Out of Mind
Hazards of
Working Alone
in Plain Sight
Working alone in plain sight doesn't mean
you're invisible or alone.
Providing security services, performing housekeeping tasks
(particularly overnight), shipping and receiving, working in small
retail establishments in a mall – all of these are examples of
working alone in plain sight. Make your presence known.
Have a plan – stay connected and never feel alone!
