- Ensuring colleagues know your whereabouts is important because:
- In the event of an evacuation of the workplace, staff will know if you are in the building (and may need rescuing) or not
- Colleagues will know how to contact you
- Colleagues will have a rough idea of your route and destination so that they can find you if you go missing (e.g. if you have an accident or sudden illness)
