The Lone Worker App Built for the Front Line
Sitemate’s Lone Worker App is powered by Dashpivot, and allows site teams to easily log lone worker check-ins at the job site. Storm, Sitemate’s AI agent, can fill out reports with location details, task status, and even photos, then site supervisors can review, edit, and sign off directly on the form via e-signature.

Why Lone Worker management Is Harder than It Should Be
No way to check in during isolated work
Workers operating alone on site often have no simple way to confirm they’re safe throughout the day.
Slow response times during an emergency
Without a clear way to raise an alert, help can be delayed if a lone worker runs into trouble.
Increased risk with no real-time monitoring
Lone workers face higher risk on site, and without visibility on their status, incidents can go unnoticed for long periods.
No record of lone worker activity
Without a system to track check-ins and locations, supervisors have no record of where lone workers were or when.
A Smarter Lone Worker App
AI-assisted check-in report creation
Storm can help turn user prompts into a complete check-in report, pre-filled with details specific to user input.
Real-time visibility on worker status
Supervisors can check worker location and status in real time, without needing to reach out manually.
Quick alerts sent directly to supervisors
Workers can raise an alert directly from their mobile device, so help can be sent without delay.
No record of lone worker activity
The Lone Worker App uses Dashpivot’s cloud storage system where all check-ins and alerts are stored. Looking into previous records can be done with a few taps and clicks.
Understanding Lone Worker Software
What is a Lone Worker App?
A Lone Worker App is a tool that supervisors and safety personnel use to create digital forms that help monitor workers who carry out tasks alone or in isolated locations. This usually covers items like scheduled check-ins, location tracking, and emergency alerts if a worker fails to respond. With a Lone Worker App, teams can keep a digital record of these check-ins, as well as confirmation that each worker made it through their shift safely.
What does a Lone Worker App help record?
- General information like worker name, role, and date
- Scope of work
- Check-in procedure with the lone worker
- Emergency triggers and response procedures
- Supporting photos and attachments
Why is lone worker safety important?
Lone worker safety is important because it is a means by which supervisors can monitor workers who carry out tasks without others nearby, and respond quickly if a worker fails to check in as expected. These situations can arise from factors like remote locations, hazardous environments, or medical emergencies where a delayed response can have serious consequences. This is especially relevant to industries like construction and oil and gas, where workers often carry out tasks alone in isolated areas of a site. Additionally, lone worker records serve as a basis for supervisors when confirming that check-in procedures were followed and responded to on time.

Frequently asked questions about the
Does Dashpivot work even if offline?
Yes, Dashpivot can work even without internet connectivity. It stores all collected data, like check-ins and location details, on the phone and automatically syncs when connectivity returns.
How does AI help when logging lone worker check-ins?
Sitemate’s AI assistant Storm can extract details from voice notes or typed entries and auto-fill the relevant fields. This removes most of the manual entry involved in running a lone worker app on site.
Can I build a custom check-in template as part of a lone worker program?
Yes, teams can build a check-in template from the ground up using the drag-and-drop builder. Fields like location, expected duration, and emergency contacts can all be added to suit your lone worker program.
Can I generate dashboards from lone worker check-ins?
Yes, lone worker safety apps like Dashpivot can generate dashboards based on collected check-in data. Supervisors can easily see who’s currently working alone and when their next check-in is due.
Can multiple people monitor the same lone worker's status?
Yes, more than one supervisor or safety officer can be assigned to monitor the same worker. All check-ins and updates are saved and timestamped, so anyone monitoring has the same information.
What happens to the workflow when a scheduled check-in is missed?
Dashpivot’s notification system alerts the assigned supervisor once a check-in is overdue. From there, the supervisor can attempt contact, escalate to another team member, or trigger an emergency response if needed.
