National Hate Crime Awareness Week 2022

This week marks National Hate Crime Awareness Week, and with this upcoming weekend, it is important to highlight that hate crimes of any kind are not tolerated.  If you witness, or are subjected to any hate crime, make your security staff aware to keep yourself and others safe. Additionally, as security staff, it is part of our job to sometimes make unpopular decisions to keep the public and premises' safe, which can result in angry customers. Even though we do what we can to de-escalate any situation, hate crime on security staff is not tolerated and should be taken seriously and reported accordingly. Let’s all work together to bring an end to hate and prejudice in the UK.

Some of our staff enjoy it that much that they take time away from their full-time job to go and work at the festival. The festival has become known as the ‘friendly festival’ and we have not had one incident since it started. The islanders are so friendly and welcome us back each year and I can’t wait until next year to see them all again for the weekend… the only problem is, it’s all over to quickly!!” EDF recently released a statement regarding their annual festival: "Eilean Dorcha Festival, the weekend music festival held in a spectacular beach-side  setting

Excellent Training Feedback

Security Scotland prides itself in encouraging growth and continuous professional development for all our staff members. One way that we do this is by providing in-house training, from essential First Aid and SIA Top-Up training to full Door Supervisor courses, Fire Marshall training and UEFA Stewarding training, to name a few. Training is a great employee benefit and an opportunity that we always encourage our staff to take full advantage of.  As Security Scotland expands, developing this newest department to the benefit of our team is something that we are continuously working towards. For ‘World Teachers Day’, we want to share some of the excellent feedback that our training department and our tutor George Jaffray have been given.
