CBI Director General, Sir Digby Jones, has urged firms to re-assess their vulnerability to security and safety threats in January 2006.
CBI Chief Says Business Must Review Security and Safety
He said that everyone in business needs to spend some time this January re-assessing their business risk after a year that has seen a major increase in UK mainland terrorism and a major incident at the UK’s fifth largest oil and petrol distribution depot.
The CBI has identified six main areas where companies need to concentrate their efforts. These include:
Controlling Entries & Exits;
Physical Security Technology;
Physical Security Basics;
Validation of Staff.
Sir Digby concluded, "Having the right plan and the right people in the right places can ensure that your business survives no matter what. It is a vital self-help insurance policy that everyone in business must have."
