Description:

A robbery can happen in seconds. Is your staff prepared to respond safely?
Financial institutions can unintentionally create vulnerabilities that make them more attractive to potential robbers. Employees may also overlook warning signs that someone is observing—or “casing”—the institution before a robbery occurs.
In this timely webinar, participants will learn how to recognize potential vulnerabilities and suspicious behaviors, reduce opportunities that may make an institution an easier target, and respond appropriately if a robbery occurs. We will examine what employees should—and should not—do during a robbery, as well as the critical steps to take immediately afterward to protect employees and customers, preserve evidence, and assist law enforcement.
Participants will learn how to:
  • Recognize behaviors that may indicate someone is casing the institution
  • Identify physical and operational vulnerabilities that can increase robbery risk
  • Understand how employee actions can either reduce or increase risk
  • Respond safely and appropriately during a robbery
  • Avoid actions that could unnecessarily escalate a dangerous situation
  • Take appropriate steps immediately after a robber leaves
  • Preserve potential evidence and provide useful information to law enforcement
  • Support employees following a traumatic robbery event
Robbery preparedness isn’t just about protecting money—it’s about protecting people. Give your employees the knowledge and confidence to recognize warning signs, respond safely, and know exactly what to do when every second counts.
