Learn Safety Training to Counter Violence with A
life Saved
Who are a life saved?   We respond to workplace
violence and its aftermath as trained first
responders. Our trainers have witnessed these
instances firsthand, and their experiences serve
as the basis for our presentations and material.
Our team combines the lessons learned with more
than 25 years of experience in learner-based,
adult-centered training to deliver influential,
enduring, and life-saving content. In case of an
act of violence, our safety training resources
are designed to enable a prompt and effective
response and reasoned decision-making. Furthermore
, our experiences demonstrate that it is possible
to considerably reduce the likelihood of an act
of violence through a proper threat assessment.
At ALS, we don't emphasize defensive tactics.
Instead, we specialize in situational awareness
instruction and tried-and-tested preventative
techniques.

It has been widely observed that the nature of an
act of violence is unpredictable and
degenerative, not to mention the ensuing chaos
that workplace violence causes. Since such an
event is always possible, it is critical for
organizations to ensure a dynamic and rapid
response during an act of violence. As a result,
it is essential to provide workplace safety
training to your employees so that they can react
quickly and make informed decisions about whether
to avoid, barricade, or confront. What are
safety training to counter violence and its
aftermath?   The safety training to counter
violence is divided into three categories
Prevention, Preparation, and then
Reaction.   Prevention   We assist organizations
in fine-tuning their anti-harassment policies to
include an Affirmative Reporting Requirement. For
preventing workplace violence, employees must be
trained to recognize and report behavioral
patterns that deviate from the established
baseline toward potentially violent behavior.   A
group or body within the organization should
investigate and document behavior-based safety.
These investigations and their outcomes should
not be punitive in nature. As productive members
of the organization, such employees should be
provided with the necessary resources for
remediation through an employee assistance program

Preparation    The critical element of our
preparation strategy for such events is TIME. The
response from law enforcement does not begin
until someone else recognizes the event for what
it is and alerts local law enforcement. In the
short window between the commencement of an event
of workplace violence and the arrival of the
first responders, the victims are on their own.
Thus, people should be empowered to make
decisions to improve their survivability.   Reacti
on    We take a different approach to reactive
strategies for workplace violence and use the
acronym ABC to describe our response
campaign.   AVOID   It means to avoid the
offender by making tactically sound decisions
rather than reacting in a panic. It is crucial to
assess the perpetrator's activity (what they are
doing) and location to avoid them (where they
are). We can make wise judgments to protect our
lives and the lives of others once we are
equipped with this knowledge.

BARRICADE   In place of the passive act of
hiding, this suggests using a previously known
secure area to barricade oneself in or
immediately discovering one that can be guarded.
There is strong evidence that perpetrators of
workplace violence will switch to simpler targets
when they come across a barred door.    CONFRONT ?
  If a potential victim lacks the resources to
apply the Avoid or Barricade techniques, we think
the unrestricted confrontation with improvised
weapons should only be used as a last choice. Our
safety training is based on the fact that
confronting the attacker should always be the
last option.

How do we help with our services?   Our safety
training curriculum focuses on taking preemptive
action. This entails making a "hard target" out
of potentially violent offenders and early
detection and intervention. We can only calculate
how many lives we save if we accomplish the
preventative part properly.   Our training
program is organized in the following order
prevention, preparation, and reaction. As
previously stated, our main priority is
prevention. Our main goal is to avoid an act of
violence before it occurs, but we understand this
is not always possible. But preparation is also a
crucial component. If we are appropriately
prepared, we can reduce the number of people hurt
or killed in an act of violence.
