Staff Safety and Security - Consultancy, Services and Training

Dealing with anxious and difficult people, or having staff exposed to threatening and intimidating actions of customers, can be very unnerving for both staff and management.  It’s important that all staff and personnel have the right training, expertise, and support to handle difficult situations in a skilful manner.  Experience has shown that effective management of a situation, combined with safety-focused premises and procedures, can significantly reduce the likelihood of a life-threatening situation.

At Total Risk we can assist organisations with improving their on- and off-site safety for staff and personnel.  This includes our full consultancy services, workplace reviews, staff training and education.  As part of our specialist service, we also offer experienced and trained personnel to accompany staff in perceived or difficult situations to meetings and off-site visits.  To learn more, ask us about our tailored ‘corporate care’ service.
