In the wake of 26/ 11 attack in year 2008, many companies reviewed their security operations. The actions of that day made clear that security was not merely a matter of protecting employees and facilities from physical harm but a terrorist attack as such on a major business district could disrupt operations, inhibit travel, snarl supply chains, and pose major strategic issues for the conduct and even the survival of a multinational business. Corporations and businesses have learned since the 26/11 attack, that robust security practices are particularly important for their well-being.
"Despite raised expectations and heightened visibility, corporate India is undergoing an evolution rather than a revolution in the management of security concerns”
The recent devastating Paris attacks, California shootings, Dhaka Café attack and constant terror threats have once again placed security at the top of the agenda for many companies. These particularly alarming situations demonstrate the vulnerability of occupational settings to attacks. Public transportation systems—themselves being workplace for many—have been a target of international terrorism. One can imagine the devastation by disruption of systems that many rely on for commuting to and from work. As attackers will continue to focus their efforts on vulnerable targets with the greatest potential for impact, the workplace is likely to continue to be the site of future attacks.
The major goal of such attacks at a workplace is to disrupt the nation’s economy, destroy the infrastructure, and detriment the citizens and communities created by it. Thus it is essential that interventions for preparedness, response and recovery occur in occupational settings.
"Human continuity is the critical element of corporate continuity."
Though we may not see the future but we should be prepared for it. Workplace preparedness for disaster and terrorism is vital to protect and sustain our National security, Defence and Public health in the 21st century. Educating employees about terrorism and bioterrorism and response behaviours help individuals prepare their families, their communities and our nation. Regardless of their locations, all employees are subject to threat exposure or actual terrorist events through their own travel, travel of family members, changes in workplace environment, weapons of mass destruction or pandemic outbreak, which would affect large areas of the country. To counter the same, we require a resilient workplace and a well versed and prepared workforce.
Understanding the barriers and opportunities for preparing the workforce and in this way the citizens of the nation— is a critical step in protecting our workforce and corporate continuity.
CSOs and Security managers these days are not only responsible for their organization's physical security needs for digital or electronic security requirements, but also for a robust and equipped workplace and workforce.
