Keeping people safe often starts with something simple - staying calm. A calm response can stop situations from escalating and helps protect everyone involved.
This reminder from the Security Industry Authority (SIA) is exactly why good communication skills, awareness and professional training matter so much in the security industry. At DS Education Birmingham, we fully support this message and continue to help train confident, responsible security professionals who know how to handle real-life situations safely.
If you work in security or are thinking about starting your career, whatโs the most important skill in your opinion - staying calm, communication, or confidence?
๐Weโd love to hear your thoughts.
Nights out work best when we look out for each other, especially during the busy festive period.
Door supervisors are skilled and trained to keep you safe โ they're here to protect you and ensure you have a safe night out, not to argue with you.
Aggression towards security staff is unacceptable. A single strike, push or kick can cause life-changing head injuries. One moment of anger can ruin your future.
Everyone wants to get home safe tonight, so treat security staff with respect โ they're doing their job. Respect goes both ways, a moment of calm prevents harm.
