What you should know
Some key aspects of our disaster security services:
(In no particular order)
Risk Assessment and Planning
We conduct comprehensive risk assessments to identify potential hazards, vulnerabilities, and risks. This involves analyzing factors such as geological, meteorological, and socio-economic data to understand the potential impact of disasters on a given area. Based on the risk assessment, our disaster management plans are developed to outline strategies for prevention, preparedness, response, and recovery.
Emergency Response and Coordination
Effective emergency response requires coordinated efforts among multiple agencies, including emergency services, government agencies, non-governmental organizations (NGOs), and community groups. Disaster response plans outline roles, responsibilities, and procedures for responding to disasters, including search and rescue operations, medical assistance, evacuation, and the provision of essential services.
Stand-By Availability
We are always ready and prepared to deploy our disaster team at a moments notice so you can maintain critical operations in the event of a disaster or significant disruption. We have over 200 specially trained officers all over the country that can travel to your emergency location. With stand-by availability we will have them positioned on-site within 12 hours or less.
Protection of Essential Personnel
We provide personal security details and various physical security measures to deter potential threats and enhance the safety of essential service providers. This can include vehicle escorts, secure transportation arrangements, access control at venues, and perimeter security for high-risk essential personnel.
Cross-Sector Collaboration
During disaster events EM Protective Services collaborates across sectors and disciplines with various government agencies, private sector organizations, and civil groups. Through the sharing of expertise, resources, and best practices, we are able to offer comprehensive and effective disaster management strategies.
Escort and Evacuation Services
EM offers evacuation services for your employees and their families during disaster related events, civil unrest or political conflicts. We also provide escort services for the transportation of goods and supplies for emergency response teams during various crisis scenarios.
Resource Management
Managing resources effectively is essential during disaster response and recovery efforts. We provide security monitoring for emergency supplies, such as food, water, medical supplies, fuel, emergency communications equipment, and power sources to support recovery efforts.
Continuous Improvement and Learning
Our successful disaster relief response requires continuous learning, adaptation, and improvement. We conduct post-disaster evaluations, follow-up training exercises, and scenario-based simulations to help identify strengths, weaknesses, and areas for improvement in disaster security response efforts.
Training and Certification
Our disaster contractors undergo specialized training and certification to develop the skills and expertise required for disaster relief assignments. This thorough training covers risk assessment, preparedness initiatives, defensive tactics, and emergency medical response.
Drone Surveillance, Search & Rescue
Our team of certified (FAA Part 107) commercial done pilots can utilize our fleet of UAVs (Uncrewed Aerial Vehicle) to partner with local emergency service providers to aid in search and rescue efforts during a disaster. We can also deploy counter-drone technologies to detect, track, and mitigate unauthorized drones flying in restricted airspace or posing security threats.
In Summary
EM Protective Services offers specialized disaster relief security by implementing comprehensive disaster planning, coordination, and collaboration with civil, emergency and government agencies. Our security measures help communities enhance their resilience and ability to withstand and recover from disasters or disruptions.
