Posted by Spartan 24 Hour Security on Saturday, September 30, 2017 In : Personal Security

We’ve all done it—worked into the late hours of the morning only to realise that we’re now alone, the staff car park is deserted, and no one knows where we are. Working late and on weekends is often a necessary evil, but it’s important to take precautions to avoid safety issues when you do have to burn the midnight oil.

Notify

Posted by Spartan 24 Hour Security on Tuesday, September 26, 2017 In : Personal Security

Part of being a bartender is your ability for dealing with drunks and unruly customers.

It is essential you deal with customers who have had a little bit too much to drink in the correct manner to get the best outcome.

Remember – it is illegal to serve customers who are too drunk as you may be putting their lives at risk. Bottom line, don’t serve the intoxicated.

What to do if a dog attacks you

Posted by Spartan 24 Hour Security on Tuesday, September 26, 2017 In : Personal Security

Even though dog bites are relatively common, full-blown attacks are not. It is important to know what to do in the unlikely event an attack happens.

What type of behaviour do dogs normally exhibit before attacking?

There is no one size fits all when it comes to the signals a dog gives before attacking, and while the signs of aggression such as growling, snarling, baring teeth and lunging are easy to read, there can also be signs that are so subtle, such as a moment of tension or a small freeze,...

Staying safe on buses and trains

Posted by Spartan 24 Hour Security on Monday, September 25, 2017 In : Personal Security

Know the bus or train times

It sounds obvious but knowing the time your train or bus is due to leave will save you hanging round on dark platforms or at bus stops at this time of year. It's particularly important to know the time of the last bus or train home if you are travelling late at night so that you do not become stranded - and vulnerable to attack.

Catch your bus or train from somewhere well lit

Thieves are far less likely to strike in well lit areas so try to make sure that you catch yo...

Choosing a car security system

Posted by Spartan 24 Hour Security on Friday, July 28, 2017 In : Vehicle Security

They run on Lithium batteries and can be carried either in handbags or held in waist straps.

The stun baton

Shaped like the baton used in relay races, this self defence devi...
