Employees are H&A Protection Services biggest asset, and investing in talent is vital to sustainable business growth and success. Our office team go through lengthy processes to recruit and hire qualified and suitable staff, but often the emphasis on caring about employees stops there – NOT with H&A.
Gareth Howlett, Managing Director, believes in order for us to offer the best quality service, all our staff including K9’s must be at their best at all times. By offering training days such as ‘Enhanced Search Training’ for our Festival and Event SIA’s as well as monthly ‘Continuous Training’ and Baseline Assessments will enhance the job roles we do operationally. Career development is key to empowering our employees to become future leaders throughout the security industry for H&A. A massive WELL DONE to all staff that participated in our Training Day at Blackpool FC. The Operational Managers did not make it easy for you all but you stepped up and conducted yourselves in a professional, friendly and thorough manner. Roll on festival season!
The day consisted of both Passive and Proactive searches for all K9 handlers including a full sweep of concourses, toilets and even the players dressing room. Additionally, with over 25 search teams there was lots of opportunities for the handlers to partake in passive scanning with lots of distractors thrown in for good measure. We’re pleased to announce that thanks to our NASDU assessor that all K9’s and handlers passed their baseline assessments ready for deployments.
A special thank you goes to one of our clients Blackpool Football Club who allowed us to use their facilities for our training day. If you would like to see our dogs in action get in touch with the team: office@haprotectionservices.co.uk or call us 0800 6894352
