Workplace Protection Workplace ProtectionIt seems we can't go a week without news breaking of a shooting at a factory, school, or office building. Real or perceived, threats of violence wreak havoc in our communities, businesses, and educational institutions. And all too often, the threats are carried out in horrific fashion, leaving families devastated, the justice system in gridlock, and plenty of blame to go around. And while fingers are pointed in all directions in the aftermath of a tragedy, often that blame finds its way to the top. Minders Protective Services specializes in assessing risk and taking preventative measures to avert tragedy. And prevention falls into a unique category: It is the only investment a corporation can make that pays its dividends when nothing happens. "Prevention" defined:Prevention is what happens when a life is saved. Prevention occurs when no one gets sued. Prevention means that a corporate president can continue his or her work uninterrupted. Prevention occurs when a corporate board meeting can be conducted in privacy and under a blanket of security. Prevention is what happens when a threat is made, directly or indirectly, and the company has the foresight to act before that threat is carried out. According to the Dickenson University School of Criminal Justice, there are an estimated 22 million threats or acts of violence in America's schools and workplaces annually. That's over 60 thousand every day! |
