DE-ESCALATION
Many emergencies begin with disgruntled employees, customers, or other members of the community.
FACILITY SECURITY
In general, most facilities have not been designed and constructed with threat mitigation in mind.
EMERGENCY PLAN DEVELOPMENT
Emergency plans are the basis for any business or facility to begin to address the unique hazards and concerns of a location.
Situational Awareness
How to identify and evaluate situations before or during their development.
Why This Training is Essential
Workplace violence is one of the leading causes of occupational fatalities and injuries. According to the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), nearly 2 million Americans report being victims of workplace violence each year. Active shooter incidents are particularly devastating, often occurring without warning and concluding within minutes.
Without proper training, employees and employers may be left vulnerable, increasing the risk of injury or loss of life. Fire Fighter Safe’s training program is designed to equip your team with the knowledge and skills needed to react effectively, minimize harm, and potentially save lives.
THREAT MANAGEMENT TEAMS
With the growing threat of workplace violence, Threat Management Teams have become increasingly important in mitigating threats before incidents arise. Multi-disciplinary teams can assess at-risk workers/students/customers to develop mitigation strategies before a critical incident occurs. Our team will assist in evaluating your threat mitigation program, or can even set up a Threat Management Team that works for your unique needs
