{{APIRef("Web Workers API")}}{{AvailableInWorkers("worker")}}
The navigator read-only property of the {{domxref("WorkerGlobalScope")}} interface returns the {{domxref("WorkerNavigator")}} associated with the worker. It is a specific navigator object, mostly a subset of the {{domxref("Navigator")}} for browsing scopes, but adapted to workers.
A {{domxref("WorkerNavigator")}} object.
If you call the following:
console.log(navigator);
inside a worker (which would basically be the equivalent of self.console.log(self.navigator);, as these are being called on the worker scope, which can be referenced with {{domxref("WorkerGlobalScope.self")}}), you will get a {{domxref("WorkerNavigator")}} object written to the console — something like the following:

__proto__: Object
You could use this navigator object to return more information about the runtime environment, as you might do with a normal {{domxref("Navigator")}} object.
