Recent laws in California (SB-553) and New York (Retail Worker Safety Act) require businesses to develop workplace violence prevention plans and provide employee training to prevent violence, reduce risk, and prepare employees for potential conflict. The Power of Preparedness (TPOP) and Sentinel Security now offer a one-stop solution that combines training, security, and legal expertise to improve workplace safety and ensure compliance with the laws.
ROYAL OAK, Mich. - Oct. 29, 2024 - PRLog -- The Power of Preparedness (TPOP), a leader in online workplace violence preparedness training, and Sentinel Security, a premier provider of risk management and intelligence consulting services, have established a new partnership to offer comprehensive solutions to the emerging state workplace violence prevention laws, including California's SB 553 and New York State's Retail Workplace Violence Prevention Bill, both of which were recently signed into law. This initiative combines the expertise of both organizations to deliver workplace violence preparedness training, workplace violence prevention plan development (required under both laws) law, as well as expert legal review provided via an OSHA/labor law expert law firm.
Both laws, which require employers to develop, implement, and maintain a workplace violence prevention plan and train their employees on workplace violence prevention, are a response to the growing need for businesses to protect employees and patrons from potential harm. Recognizing the complexity of implementing these measures, TPOP and Sentinel Security have created an innovative 'one-stop solution' to streamline compliance while ensuring workplace safety and legal compliance.
A Comprehensive, Seamless Approach to State Mandates
The new 'One-Stop' compliance solution includes:
- Workplace Violence Preparedness Training: TPOP's industry-leading online training modules are tailored to educate employees and managers on how to recognize, prevent, and respond to workplace violence. The core training includes critical skills in Recognizing Behavioral Indicators, De-escalation Techniques, Active Assailant Preparedness, Safe Response to Shoplifters, and Interacting With the Homeless.
- Workplace Violence Prevention Plan Reviews/Creation: Sentinel Security's security experts will review existing workplace violence prevention plans, conduct risk assessments, or help develop new plans in compliance with California and New York state law requirements.
- Legal Reviews: Legal compliance assessments ensure that all documentation and procedures align with both mandates, providing businesses with peace of mind and liability mitigation as they navigate these complex regulations.
Charles Marino, CEO of Sentinel Security, added, "We're thrilled to partner with TPOP to bring this timely and essential solution to California and New York businesses. SB 553 and New York State's Retail Workplace Violence Prevention Bill compliance isn't just about meeting legal requirements – it's about reducing violence in the workplace. With our combined expertise, we are positioned to help businesses implement strong, effective safety programs quickly and efficiently."
National brands are already seeing the value in this integrated approach. Chris Farnan, Vice President of Asset Protection at Honey Baked Ham, praised the new partnership and solution:
"We believe that employee associate safety is paramount, and TPOP's training, combined with Sentinel's plan development and guidance, has provided The Honey Baked Ham Company with the peace of mind that we are fully compliant with SB 553 while fostering a safer working environment. This one-stop solution was exactly what we needed – it's easy to implement, comprehensive, and gave us confidence that we're protecting both our employees associates and our brand."
