Travel
So many controversy on the scanners for luggage and body this year, but most recently, WSAV reported a man trying to snuggle poisonous snakes on a plane from Argentina bound for Europe was caught by X-Ray scanners. Or Alec Baldwin's anger management challenges on a US Airways flight that caused so much havoc on and off the plane. Reports of food poisoning, people falling off and modern day pirates on cruise ships takes the safety and security to the sea. Crashes and rail jumps on our railways. And let's not forget the number of car accidents and fatalities in 2011. Did you know that the U.S. Census Bureau maintains all this statistical data for transportation accidents, incidents and fatalities? You can read more at U.S. Census Bureau website.
Event Protection
As weddings, graduations, promotions, openings, campus parties and other celebration were kicking off, Saber was on many security details for many events in Savannah. We had to hire two event security managers particularly to cover special events in the city so that the party wouldn't get too out of hand while still allowing party goers to have fun. Safety and fun can go hand-in-hand. Our protection detail included
Campus Safety
Saber provided many security details for Georgia Southern University (GSU) greek parties on and off campuses. The goal is always to keep the students safe and educate those on safety and security measures. Campus safety has been on the rise in the last decade with many on campus shootings, hazing, students missing after parties, binge drinking and more. As always, Saber is constantly training in new security techniques, investigative procedures and working closely with local law enforcement agencies as well as campus police. At many GSU greek parties, Saber officers were there to check I.D.s, monitor the party inside and outside for any alcohol or drugs, and just ensure that everyone was safe so they can enjoy the party. We want everyone to have a good time, but not at the expense of their lives or putting others in danger.
Physical Safety & Security
Safety and Security starts with security monitoring, access control and education. Saber provides many physical safety and security service to a number of offices, plants, construction and industrial sites in Savannah and surrounding areas. In 2011, companies have tried to find ways to maintain the high level of safety and security at their work sites and protect their employees while reducing cost. Saber provides a creative way to produce both in remote monitoring. Through physical security cameras at client site, Saber can monitor the site remotely via computer software. This is a huge reduction in cost for security officer man hours. Additionally, we can record daily activities for later investigations if needed. Remote monitoring can also reduce insurance cost for an organization.
Plans for 2012
So as we complete our first month in 2012, rest assured, Saber is consistently thinking of how we can improve the services that we offer, but what new offerings can we provide the Savannah community. One of our main committment this year is Community Partnership. As we've learned as an organization, it is beneficial for everyone that Saber works with the community as a partner to prevent crime and promote safety. We will continue to improve our services through continued education and training for all of our employees to provide top notch service to our current and future clients. But we also know that community involvement helps build safety and security awareness and strengthen and promote partnership.
Stay Safe!
