ESPI Protective Consulting Services
Protective Consulting has a varied usage, it can cover Personal and Family Safety, Workplace Violence, Employee Misconduct, Workplace Bullying, Stalking, Hostile Work Environment, and Harassment, as an example of areas it covers.
Where Protective Investigations handles the actual investigation portion of these types of incidents, Protective Consulting looks are the areas of concern before they happen and stops them from getting to the investigation stage. It looks at culture issues, is there a toxic work condition, negative behaviors, hiring and retention issues, policies and procedures, training, past incident handling and outcomes. Then we can recommend adequate changes to be implemented. Of course, these have to be implemented to be effective or your liabilities go up from that point.
This can all have an impact on an entity’s financial affairs, legal liabilities, public perception, and employee safety issues. It will benefit the entity by keeping employees longer, adding to the bottom line over time, and providing a safer work environment.
Workplace Bullying is not illegal in the U.S. at this time, it can be if directed at a protected class person, as in a race, sex, creed, age, disability, or national origin type incidents. It can turn into Workplace Violence, Hostile Work Environment, Stalking or Harassment incidents at any time.
When it comes to consulting at ESPI, our goal is to look at all your liabilities and security measures to identify what the risks are to implement the best strategies and tactics. This saves you time and money in the long run and keeps you out of a tough situation in the future.
One thing to remember:
“Proactive is always better and cheaper than being reactive.”
Protection Needs Assessment
ESPI conducts protection need assessments to reveal the areas where protection is needed. ESPI will use computer intelligence and reports to finalize the client’s needs.
Risk-Threat-Vulnerability Assessments
Risk-Threat-Vulnerability assessments are necessary to plan and protect. A threat assessment is the first step when conducting a risk and vulnerability analysis. There are various threats to a certain location that must be identified. Since the potential threats can vary, they will require different responses and actions.
Individual & Family Security Assessment
The safety of you and your family is a priority to us. We first conduct an individual or family security assessment to create a strategy for the right protective measures to implement depending on the results of the assessment.
