Would you like to test your ability to effectively respond to an escalating travel security situation? Join security experts James Wood and Harriet Brennan for a Crisis Simulation Exercise at International SOS offices. Make decisions as part of a realistic simulation of a crisis in a safe environment and experience first-hand the importance of an integrated approach across security, medical and operations teams to respond to an incident. You will also have the opportunity to leverage the latest digital tools and capabilities, and navigate intelligence-led information collection and analysis processes. The interactive session will be followed by a Q&A and summary of key takeaways.   Why is a Travel Crisis Simulation Exercise useful?

• 27% European organisations declare they are moderately to not confident in their level of preparedness.
• 70% say they have to improve communication with employees during a crisis.

International SOS and Control Risks have developed this engaging simulation exercise to help their clients maximise their crisis management preparedness to maintain the health and safety of their mobile workforce while ensuring business continuity.

This conference will discuss the challenges associated with protecting the largest construction site in Europe that employs over 5,500 multinational and ethnically-diverse workers across 80 contracted organisation. It outlines the benefits of a strong client/contractor partnership in the delivery of a risk-proportionate and cost-efficient integrated security service whilst also meeting the stringent regulatory and legal requirements associated with the civilian nuclear industry. Also in the agenda, two case studies will share how HPC created its workforce's strong security culture and its proven methodology used to match the dynamic security systems within a construction environment. The afternoon session will compare these challenges to those on a large London-based construction project, with a second session aimed at demonstrating how insider threat needs more than safeguarding priority information.
