Webinar - 'Protecting Security Workforces From CV19 and Pandemic Risks'
CPD
Come and join us for another online CPD webinar, available to Security Institute members and guests, allowing you to continue your professional development from the comfort and safety of your own home.
We have partnered with Risk2Resoloution to produce this informative webinar around the COVID-19 situation we currently face.
The security industry is well used to having to protect its frontline operatives from the threat of assault and infection from some of those that it routinely deals with. However, something has gone wrong?
Frontline security practitioners are disproportionately affected by CV19 and have the highest deaths per 100,000 of any sector or industry. With the experience of countering risks that exists within the industry, we must ask ourselves whether or not we have got our risk assessment processes right and what we need to do to live alongside this disease for years to come.
This webinar will talk about what people should be doing to learn from the experience that their staff are having and to consider how they can better assess the risks their staff face from this deadly disease. We will talk about the value of listening to, and debriefing, your employees as well as a new risk assessment tool, based on countering terrorist threats, that has been developed by Risk To Resolution Ltd.
The webinar will be delivered by Nick Aldworth the former UK National CT Coordinator, Steve Hockin an associate in Risk to Resolution Ltd and Jennie Harmston who is an experienced public health practitioner and who helped combat the MERS and SARS pandemics.
You can earn 2 formal CPD points for attending
