WHEN IS IT TIME TO SWITCH?

The purpose of this blog is to provide some insight into the value of private security during the Covid-19 pandemic, the vulnerability of frontline key workers and how a regulated guideline can help contractors and their team members who are unable to work from home.

The UK Government has published details of essential service providers under the new public health guidelines which includes the private security industry, which means that the security personnel were allowed to travel to work when we were all in strict lockdown implemented on 23rd of March 2020.

Since we are preparing for the ease of Covid-19 lockdown restrictions, it is extremely important to stay alert, control the virus and, in doing so, save lives.

HOW VIRPIO SECURITY CAN HELP

The government has set out its plan to return to life as normal which will see restrictions being eased, however everyone going out must follow specific rules. These rules can be implemented and monitored by security personnel.

LOOKING AFTER VACANT PROPERTY

Amid this COVID-19 outbreak, a lot of sites have been left unattended and unguarded. This has resulted in a lot more break ins, thefts, and trespassing. VIRPIO SECURITY can help to protect sites, personnel, and assets by providing affordable security solutions.

MANAGING QUEUES AT RETAIL BUSINESSES

Social distancing is a key measure to save lives. To ensure this is done correctly businesses have opted to utilise professionally trained security officers who can monitor long ques at the entry point of the business and make sure that no more than six people can enter at the same time.

RETURNING TO SCHOOL

The government has also announced the intention to implement a phased return for students to go back to schools. In order to provide a save environment, schools must prepare to take social distancing initiatives. VIRPIO SECURITY can help schools by providing physical security personnel who will be responsible for managing traffic, safe ques and ensuring the implementation of social distancing.
