Security workers, regardless of where they are working, face occupational safety hazards like no other industry. These are the quiet people who are around public spaces and services, making sure people are safe.

While performing this important work, these people can face injury when dealing with violent members of the public, dangers slips and falls, toxic substances and gases, as well as the psychological stress of dealing with these hazards. However, security employees are at higher risk of these hazards when they work alone, remotely and/or in isolation.
