Best practice strategies to protect your people and secure your workplace, assets, and infrastructure…safeguarding your future.

Protecting What Matters Most: Tailored Security Solutions for a Safer Tomorrow
The safety and security of your people, customers, assets, infrastructure and information cannot be left to chance or considered as an afterthought following an incident or event in your workplace. It is important that your organisation is firmly on the front foot, with best practice and contemporary strategies in place to maintain the safety of your people, and security of your key assets, infrastructure and information.
In a world where security threats are increasingly complex and unpredictable, protecting your organisation’s key assets is essential. At Workforce Resilience, we specialise in developing and implementing protective security strategies that address your specific risks, vulnerabilities, and needs. Our expert team partners with you to create a secure environment, ensuring that your people, infrastructure, information, and reputation are safeguarded against potential threats.

Our Protective Security services:
Security Risk Assessment
WR security vulnerability risk assessments are aimed at providing an objective, external and independent overview to identify and assess the security risks, threats, and vulnerabilities that are existing at the time of the assessment, suggesting strategies aimed at ensuring that a contemporary and best practice protective security strategy can be applied to the site to enhance the safety and security of people, key assets, and infrastructure within your organisation to enhance protection and resilience.
Retail Crime Security Assessments & Strategy
WR retail crime security assessments are aimed at developing strategies and approaches that enable an increase in deterrence, detection, and prevention of crime in retail environments. Strategies for responding to crime, with a focus on safety of team, customers, and visitors can be developed and prioritised where prevention cannot be achieved.
Protective Security Framework Development
WR will support you in the development of a Protective Security Policy Framework (PSPF). A PSPF is a set of policies and guidelines that outlines the physical security measures required to safeguard resources and minimises security risks. This will assist in developing strategies to guide your organisation’s security practices and procedures, aimed at protecting their people, information, and assets. The four key themes within the framework are: Security Governance, Information Security, Personnel Security, and Physical Security.
Security Technology Review
The application and integration of security technology forms an integral part of each of the deter, detect, delay, and respond considerations and activities for the overall security strategy. WR will support your organisation through the review and analysis of your current security technology strategies, developing a practical, best practice strategy that ensures defence in depth, early detection capabilities, future proof design consideration, effective use of the latest Ai and analytics solutions, and interoperability across technology platforms.
Crowded Places Assessment
A Crowded Place is a place that is used by large numbers of people on a regular basis is considered a crowded place. Crowded places include, but are not limited to, sports stadiums, transport infrastructure, shopping centres, pubs, clubs, places of worship, tourist attractions, movie theatres and civic spaces. WR will work with you to understand the risk at your site or precinct, consider existing security strategies, and implement a layered security approach (deter, detect, delay, respond) based on best practice in Australia, New Zealand, and the UK.
Workforce Resilience procedures, associated strategies and initiatives, and training activities align with the Australian New Zealand Counter Terrorism Committee (ANZCTC) Active Armed Offender Guidelines for Crowded Places 2023 and the NZ Government Crowded Places Strategy.
Active Armed Offender Incident Strategy, Training and Exercises
The threat from Active Armed Offender Incidents (AAOI) within Australia and New Zealand continues to be both very real, and significant. As regularly seen around the world, and recently in Australia and New Zealand, attacks can take place at any time, without warning, in any location, impact any organisation either directly or indirectly, and vary in size and motivation. Sadly, AAOIs cannot always be prevented, and as such, clear response strategies need to be developed and implemented, in conjunction with activities to assist in creating resilience within workplaces to reduce their impact, and hasten recovery. Prepare your organisation for potential active armed offender incidents with tailored strategies, training, and simulation exercises.
