Each of our courses and services were developed and fine tuned by our safety and security experts, who have a combined century of experience in law enforcement, military operations, and public safety. Our trainers are committed to participating in educational opportunities with government sectors like the FBI and Homeland Security every year and using what they learn to improve current, and develop new, courses.

Each of these options serves the purpose of educating and preparing organizations in how to mitigate, respond, and recover from all forms of workplace violence. We've also assisted many organizations in creating courses that are unique to their protocols and type of business.

Find more details on each of these on our website and contact us today. Or ask about our free online Introduction to Workplace Violence course. This course will give valuable insights into the foundational knowledge on state legal requirements, types of violence, and the cost of violent incidents.

A 10 minute training video once a year is not sufficient enough to prepare staff members for emergency situations. Whether the emergency is a natural disaster, a violent employee, or a violent client, staff members should have an actionable response plan that guides them through the event. Dynamic training plans across all types of safety topics create better safety habits and promote confidence in the face of emergencies.

Online Videos & Webinars: Videos are an excellent training tool that can be watched individually or as a group. The content should be provided or reviewed by a safety expert. Quizzes and discussions after the video help retain the information covered.

Walk-through Exercises or Drills: We have had several clients that come to us with a plan for evacuation or lock downs, but when we have them demonstrate it they learn that it is ineffective or not possible to follow due to missing locks, keys, or other logistical issues. Walk-throughs not only help build muscle memory and retention, but they also reveal weaknesses or vulnerabilities in the plan. No Broadway production has ever just read the script and performed without rehearsing. Think of emergency preparedness the same way.

Access to Resources: This means individuals have personal access to the Emergency Action Plan, training videos, risk rubrics and warning sign information, and know how and to who to report concerning behavior. Posters and printable infographics are great resources to have around the office and at individual desks.

Regular Reviews and Reminders: Reviewing the plans, warning signs, safety procedures regularly also helps improve retention. This can be done in email blasts, company newsletters, monthly or weekly meetings, or by strategically spacing out training sessions each quarter.

Roundtable Discussions: Roundtable discussions give employees an opportunity to express concerns, give input, and ask questions for clarification. Safety is a team effort. Allowing departments, floors, and teams to discuss the material, lessons, and plans, helps build trust within the staff.

In Person Expert Lead Sessions: Bringing in a safety expert to provide guidance and answer questions will give employees at every level to learn more about prevention and response. While many organizations prefer to have their own safety team or coordinator, inviting in experts can relieve pressure from internal staff from having to be an expert in every safety topic.

Having a workplace violence plan is not where the work stops. Developing a plan and providing comprehensive training to ensure that every employee understands their role in an emergency situation is another step. Providing training on what type of behavior to look out for, how to report them, and who to report them to, is another. Understanding how to use a risk assessment and what steps to take when an employee displays concerning behaviors is another. Security measures like alert systems, door locks, cameras, and emergency exits or strategies should also be considered when developing a plan.

APB is here to help your workplace develop and implement a plan that accounts for multiple types of workplace violence events, on large or small scales, how minimize the chances, and how to move forward after. We can provide Emergency Action Plan reviews, or help create them from scratch, and provide expert lead training that is specific to the organizations needs.

The right plan and the proper training can help save lives and mitigate the chances of a tragedy all together. Browse our services and courses here: https://www.apbconsultingsolutions.com/store

What is a facility threat assessment? It's the first step in preparing for external threats and internal hazards. A comprehensive FTA looks at the environment, crime trends, building infrastructure, neighboring businesses and organizations, and even employee habits.

The detailed report provides insights into the upgrades needed for proper security monitoring and alert systems. This will also provide key details for the training that employees should receive. Each location, branch, or campus will have it's own unique needs and threats.

A comprehensive FTA will reveal vulnerabilities, test protocol effectiveness, and give insights into security upgrade prioritization. APB provides an in depth report with recommendations and how to apply impactful methods to combat any risks. You can see more details and schedule a call or email us for more information through our website: https://www.apbconsultingsolutions.com/facility-threat-assessments

Last year we launched a new type of assessment to find safety and security gaps and inefficiencies. A Pe*******on Exercise (PenEx) is a safety and security exercise for testing risk and vulnerabilities to property, employees, guests, and/or assets. Many companies and organizations have written safety procedures and train their employees on them annually. However, this does not mean that they are followed in everyday practice.

The format of this assessment is unique because the staff will be unaware, they're being tested. This is not an unannounced simulated robbery or attack.
The goal is not to scare employees or threaten them to reveal how they perform under pressure. Once staff discovers a tactic to be suspicious, and proper security protocols are initiated, that portion of the exercise stops.

While most of the staff is unaware, they are being tested, it is to see how well they use their existing training. Are they more likely to give information about the schedules or locations of executives if the person on the phone is friendly, well-spoken, and provides seemingly personal details about the executive? Do employees hold the door open for well-dressed individuals even though each employee is supposed to individually scan in using an ID card? Is client or customer information left sitting out in the open and easily accessible?

The exercise is meant to catch the everyday habits that may go unnoticed or seem innocuous, but have the potential to put staff, assets, or clients at risk for harm. See the full breakdown of the three levels we offer and contact us today for more information. You can also check out our other courses and services we provide to prepare your staff for any threat they may encounter.

Three foundational safety tasks to complete in the new year that will help set up the rest of your year in safety training and planning. Safety and security often gets pushed further down the agenda the more consecutive days an organization goes without an incident. The issue we often find with that is when an incident does occur, not only is no one prepared to respond to it, but often the incident is quickly forgotten and moved on from. There is no safety training or security changes made to prevent the next incident.

Don't wait until there is a loss of revenue, or worse, life, to start implementing safety education, prevention, and response planning. Invest in safety this year.

APB is here to be an easy button. Our M3 training model is helping organizations with busy calendars train their employees in a manageable time frames without sacrificing the quality of the content. The M3 model is adaptable to each type of profession or business needs.

We also provide comprehensive Facility Threat Assessments that help guide security and infrastructure updates. Our Emergency Action Plan review service allows your organization's plan to be reviewed by safety and security experts, not just a legal team who needs to check boxes.

Understanding the difference between cover and concealment is just a small step in building a comprehensive emergency response plan that is adaptable to any scenario.

Our Survive Your Environment course also covers topics like:
-Identifying the items in the trauma kit and skills necessary to use them
-Working as a team to fortify and defend a location
-Understanding the “Window of time” once the attack has begun

When employees are properly prepared it minimizes the chances of warning signs going unnoticed and potentially reduces casualties and injuries in the even of emergencies.

Situational awareness is not just useful for walking around dark alleys in bad neighborhoods. It is vital for those working in construction zones, schools, public facing businesses, businesses in highly trafficked areas, and more. All professions and job types should be training their employees on situational awareness and fostering a workplace environment that allows them to use their skills unhindered.

These five common threats to situational awareness can be minimized through proper training, good communication, and teamwork. Our situational awareness courses help develop this skillset without using intimidating tactics. This course, and several others of ours, can also be taught in our M3 model by certified safety coordinators. We give the coordinators the material and training that they need in order to confidently lead their co-workers.

Our online situational awareness course is available to purchase as a stand alone course or in our three course bundle that will also include Verbal De-escalation and Responding to an Active Aggressor. All of the options are available to browse on our website.

Convenience without sacrificing vital content. Our Modern Micro Model learning, or M3, helps businesses and organizations cover safety lessons and training sessions in 45 minutes or less. Finding the time to train can be difficult for many professions and businesses. Our solution gives them the time and content they need to train their employees in a wide variety of topics.

We've helped our clients gain invaluable skills in verbal de-escalation, situational awareness, and create courses tailored to their needs like robbery prevention. Our clients designate one or multiple employees to become certified safety coordinators and learn how to teach our content so that they can keep workplace violence prevention in house. This allows them to learn more about the recognition, response, mitigation, and recovery methods that make up a complete prevention plan and education.

The average out-of-court settlement for one workplace violence incident is approximately $500,000. Prevention and education help protect the lives of employees and the livelihood of the business.
