A checklist of things to consider…
1. Risk Assessment:
When you move into a new premises it’s important to identify the areas most vulnerable to crime and safety, and put measures in place to prevent and protect. They should be reviewed on a regular basis (annually), and if anything changes or an incident occurs.
On 12 November 2018 The Assaults on Emergency Workers (Offences) Act became law. Meaning anyone who attacks the police, fire service, paramedics, nurses and other emergency service workers will face tougher sentences, with the maximum jail sentence being increased from 6 to 12 months.
As violence against NHS staff continues to increase, reaching its highest rate in five years the government is taking steps to turn this trend around.
It’s peak burglary season, with reports of increases of 38% on the rest of the year, so take a little time to ensure you don’t become a statistic.
