While the pandemic has put a stop to large-scale public gatherings, the latest vaccine developments are likely to bring some normalcy back. With these developments, event organizers must absolutely review event security protocols to avoid safety lapses at their gatherings.
Some Initial thoughts
Your typical public event poses the following security risks:
- Medical emergencies
- Instances of theft and vandalism
- The occasional major break out that requires forceful crowd-control
These concerns draw attention to the minimal requirements for any event security team. Thus, before finalizing security guard companies for your events in NYC, you should ask them if they can deliver this list of services:
a) Effective Crowd Control
Only the best guard services have security officers in their teams with the experience to effectively control crowd without ruining the event. Additionally, they have a team large enough that can manage large crowds effectively.
b) Pre-Event Security Risk Assessments
Always ask for an initial risk evaluation and compare the lists of threats identified by potential event security companies to see who has the right idea. In security, if you fail to plan; you plan to fail.
c) Personal Security For The Celebrities
If you plan to invite a high-profile celebrity to your event, you must make sure that your security team knows how to handle personal security. Top security guard companies always have pre-planned security protocols for celebrities to ensure their safety; look over the plans before finalizing your choice of security company.
