Today we are going to tackle a tough topic – active assailant training, more commonly referred to as active shooter training. This is the first segment in our four part series on risk management, and a serious one at that:
70% of all active shooter incidents take place within businesses or educational settings
96% are carried out by men
40% result in suicide
25% of companies are unprepared for these events
We will be speaking with David Trout, Enterprise Preparedness at Raytheon Company and Ryan DeStefano, VP Global Assistance Services at On-Call International – both involved in their organizations active assailant training and preparedness programs – to discuss how to approach planning for and executing a readiness program, or augmenting an existing program. We’ll then wrap up with a few tips to support you in your process and help protect your employees and visitors, while minimize injury and/or loss of life.
