The HIM virtual workshop opened a new train of thought and strategy. The presenter, through his research and knowledge, was able to guide participants into more logical and workable processes going forward. All in all, an hour very well invested. By Tony Botes, National Administrator, SASA
Great session today folks, so glad there are others who are just as frustrated as I am when it comes to the lack of training and common sense around security issues. I’d definitely be up for more sessions like these. Martin Preshur, FSS CONSULTING (SAFETY AND SECURITY MANAGEMENT)
The virtual meeting generated good discussion on topic. Overall, from my own experiences training is inadequate in accordance to the role, the knowledge and understanding of the risks in their environment in which they work. Catherine Halse, DUE DILIGENCE INVESTIGATIONS
“The HIM virtual group meeting on hotel risks and security was an excellent learning experience. The facilitator is an obvious expert in this field, and he and his team have worked on the ground with hotels for extended periods of time. He brought up trends and case studies regarding every day petty crime, plus larger, more punishing attack scenarios that stemmed from local, regional, and even international threat issues. In this, HIM is ahead of the curve, and the hotel sector would be wise to adopt this type of risk mitigation strategy. I look forward to attending future HIM seminars.”

The webinar was relevant to the changing role of security in the workplace to provide not just security but ensure safety in the workplace. A great advantage of the webinar was connecting with like minded security practitioners and sharing ideas and methods of making the workplace safer for all. By Mark Kramer, Managing Director, MANTIS SECURITY
I want to say that today’s meeting was a success. The groups expertise exposed the importance of training, investigation and action. Various points were made concluding that awareness is key and lacking. George Clark, SECURITY CONSULTANT
