Description
For many NGO staff worldwide, security problems, rising crime and ill health are risks faced in the everyday working environment. Many of the dangers they face can be avoided or significantly reduced. "Safety First" makes staff aware of these increased risks and what they can do to minimise them. "Safety First" outlines the basic principles of security and provides practical guidance on dealing with a range of security and safety issues, such as: personal security awareness; staying healthy; site security; vehicle travel and movements; telecommunications; dealing with security threats; evacuating staff; incident reporting and analysis; and working with the media. "Safety First" is a reference for even the most experienced aid worker, as well as an introduction to security for those working in insecure environments for the first time.
