Working alone

[Roughquest]

I have been in a new job since May 06, but alot of the time I am left working the office alone, and I mean on my own, my boss is usually away on the road etc - but what does concern me is if i were to have an accident in the office while alone and no one would find me for ages if i knocked myself out or unable to call for help or worse....what does employment law say on this ?

Your boss must, have an "lone worker policy" health + safety law states that someone MUST visit you once every 15 mins

surely that once every 15 minutes thing is not true??
