All licensed premises, along with other retailers should be aware of the impact that an armed robbery/hold-up can have on their business and on the health, safety and welfare of staff, customers and themselves. The aim of this tailored training program is to reduce the risk, or at least minimise the impact, both human and financial, of armed robbery on a premises, and to maximise the chances of prosecution of armed robbery offenders.
The program outlines the principles of workplace design and a range of workplace practices that can be used to minimise the impact and incidence of armed robbery / hold-ups. Whilst the Armed Robbery Awareness Program cannot guarantee risks associated with armed robbery will be eliminated however the strategies suggested have general deterrence and crime prevention value and are designed to minimise the incidence of this serious offence.
By increasing the risk of apprehension, increasing the effort required to commit the offence and reducing the rewards available to the offender, it is possible to reduce the risk of victimisation. Three broad strategies are discussed, in addition to these strategies an audit of your security requirements is recommended. A risk assessment should review existing standards of physical security, workplace design and layout, workplace procedures and protocols such as cash handling practices, staff training needs and the locality of the business.
