Operational Security & Terrorism Threats

The operational security risks faced by organisations in the transport and logistics industry are varied and come from different sources.

Many have experienced both opportunist and well-organised criminal activity, and some have even been exposed to terrorist threats. This course gives drivers a good understanding of the risks and threats, and more importantly how to respond to them appropriately without being exposed to further risk. The course is especially relevant where high value goods are being moved around the UK and Europe.
