View this recorded webinar where we explore crisis management, campus safety, and public safety strategies for campus protests amid escalating global and domestic tensions.

The evolving landscape of campus safety necessitates a shift from static, location-bound panic buttons to dynamic, mobile solutions that provide critical information to first responders. By embracing unified safety platforms, universities can address the multifaceted security concerns of their communities more effectively. These solutions not only enhance personal safety but also optimize the use of resources, ensuring that educational institutions remain secure environments conducive to learning and growth.

Despite a recent survey finding that one in five students believed they had faced disability discrimination by their university, it also revealed that a third of students said all adjustments agreed for them by their university were put in place. This indicates plenty of appetite amongst higher education institutes to provide a supportive environment for them to learn and flourish, starting with one of the most critical areas of a student’s experience: safety.

Hazardous work environments such as remote mining sites, expansive industrial complexes, and offshore platforms are often plagued by poor connectivity. This deficiency can result in staff becoming isolated, particularly in emergency situations, leading to increased risks to physical safety and substantial stress on employees.
