"Dealing with Reality – When it Comes
Knocking "
(On Your Door)
Security officers are called to respond to a wide variety of incidents. Most,
thankfully, don’t involve a serious confrontation. However, some do. The policy
for most employers is “hands-off.” Back off and call the police. That’s a great
idea…except….the police don’t get there in two minutes (usually). The situation
may easily get out of hand before police arrive. Security officers are not
physically prepared to use force, mentally prepared to use force, and almost
never trained to use force. What can you do before police arrive?
If you do something, or if you do nothing, the results may easily include…the
employer being sued to cover injuries received by the security officer. Or, the
employer being sued for injuries received by subjects involved. In either
situation, the employer may very well be liable, even if the security officer is
armed, licensed, and trained in the use of a weapon. The problem – if verbal
discussion doesn’t work, the officer can either use their weapon or run. There
isn’t much in between. Even if pepper spray or Tasers are available, the
employer is in an untenable situation.
The solution is for security officers, regardless of age, size, or disposition,
to receive hands-on, reasonable force, self-defense training. This session
discussions all of the pros and cons, the necessary steps to be considered, and
the best suggestions for avoiding unnecessary litigation. We’re not talking
about fighting. We’re talking about AVOIDING a fight. Included is a practical
demonstration of de-escalating and escaping a physical confrontation.
