K Calder & Associates
K Calder & Associates is a fully licensed and insured security and risk management consulting practice, serving clients in Canada and the United States. We provide practical threat management solutions and services to private and public sector organizations and individuals.
Faced with a threat, two common reactions emerge:
- Under-react: "Bob's just like that. Calm down. Ignore him. Once he gets fired, the problem will be solved."
- Over-react or mis-react: "There's an armed guard by the front door and new lexan windows, just in case Bob comes by again."
Both reactions can be dangerous, and "management by retirement" is a poor option. How do you know if a person is a "howler" (attracts attention but is not dangerous) or a "hunter" (requiring an immediate and specific response)?
A trained threat assessment professional from K Calder & Associates will help you:
- Manage risk and practice due diligence - to keep you and your business safe
- Focus resources exactly where they are needed - to avoid incurring unnecessary costs
We do:
- Customized consulting
- Workplace interventions
- Threat assessment training programs
- Threat/risk assessments
- Security planning for organizations (private and public)
Empty threats... or early warning?
An act of significant workplace violence is rarely a spontaneous incident. Often there are identifiable behaviours of concern, or indicators, which show that a person is moving toward an act of violence. We can help you evaluate and manage the risk. Contact us today if you are concerned.
