What type of tasks can a lone worker perform under the Individual Train Detection policy?

A lone worker operating under the Individual Train Detection policy is authorized to carry out routine inspection and minor corrective tasks. This specific arrangement allows for efficient operation and safety, as the procedures involved in these tasks generally do not require extensive resources or coordination among multiple workers.

Routine inspections are often standardized processes that ensure ongoing safety and performance of the railway infrastructure without needing the complexity of team coordination. Minor corrective tasks can often be completed quickly and without the need for extensive safety measures that would be necessary for more significant construction or emergency repair activities.

Tasks like major construction projects or emergency repairs typically require a greater level of oversight, teamwork, and protection systems to ensure safety, as they may present additional risks. Similarly, operational management of track schedules involves significant logistical considerations that necessitate a team approach rather than a lone worker. Thus, routine inspection and minor corrective tasks fit within the framework of what a lone worker can safely and effectively manage under the Individual Train Detection policy.
