Attacks on staff are proven to have an effect on morale in the workplace. Does your organisation value their employees? Are you, the employer, concerned with the safety of your staff? Is commuting to and from the workplace a safety concern? Do your employees work late? Does your staff meet with clients at remote locations? Is there a risk of valuable staff members being lost as they leave to seek out a more secure and safe work environment?

By offering a self defence/management of aggression program the employer demonstrates a duty of care to staff that can have an extremely positive effect on the work place.  Your organisation as a whole can benefit greatly from your staff's increase confidence, awareness and self-esteem.

Our primary objective with our personal safety and self defence packages is to provide staff with effective practical techniques that are applicable not only within the work environment but can also be applied to everyday life situations. Our self defence training is designed to develop and install a personal safety package that covers home, social, work and transit environments.
