A long-standing client has again requested Lockforce to provide Maritime Security services for the transit through high-risk waters. The transit required Lockforce to do a Risk Assessment of potential threat sources, Route Card analysis to identify the specific areas of criticality for the Transit and Vessel Process Review to identify any areas of vulnerability for both the vessel and crew members.

Crew security training and vessel drills also formed an important aspect ensuring all the vessel security plans and procedures aligned to the threat environment. The Lockforce security team was aboard and operated seamlessly as a part of the ship’s crew.

Lockforce currently has security advisers deployed in Papua New Guinea to support a Mining Company and Drilling company.

PNG is divided into four main regions: Mamose, Papua, Islands and Highlands.  These regions consist of 22 provinces and the National Capital District.

While only 8.4 million people call Papua New Guinea home, there’s more than 850 different tribes and more than 800 languages to be found in this island nation.

PNG is like no other country with so much unspoilt land and cultures to explore. There are about 20,000 expats living and working in PNG within just about every facet of the economy. Automotive, mining, logging, financial services, aviation and tourism provide many of the expat opportunities. In addition to industry, there are many aid agencies and aid projects in PNG, which attract volunteer workers for all over the world.

In order to provide professional security advice in such a cultural diverse country, it is imperative to ensure you are intune with the local traditions, customs and issues that will arise based on the location and nature of the project.

With the Mining Industry still pushing ahead it’s important to either achieve compliance or maintain your current compliance with ISO’s 9001, 14001 and 45001.

Many businesses have adapted to the changes within their operational environment, and streamlined the way they do business by updating their Management System.  Businesses have had to refine their processes to keep operational and also to accommodate staff working from home, reduction in employees and contractors and even adopting new capabilities and services.

In order to achieve compliance, your Management System documentation must be updated to reflect what you are now doing to protect your business and remain compliant.

Since 2011, Lockforce has continued to provide a range of Security Services to various industries within the Philippines. Client approaches to Lockforce are increasing due to companies realizing the importance of guard force capability, accountability, compliance with the client’s contract, and compliance with Government regulations.

The current global pandemic has highlighted the shortfall in some Security Providers not complying with Government regulations. Those security providers are required to pay such contributions as SSS, PhilHealth and PAGIBIG. This non-compliance has left their employees out in the “cold” when it comes to Government aid. Not only is this illegal, but it also impacts the client’s reputation and can lead to labor claims against you; the Company.

A number of companies have approached Lockforce to take over and “manage” the guard force, with the capability extending throughout the Philippines. Lockforce ensures that the company will get all security services they are paying for and also ensure that the contract obligations are fulfilled through strict management, auditing, and reporting. Lockforce implements a system to ensure that the guard force is accountable to your business and the contract, and you are getting what you pay for. Lockforce’s Security Management ensures compliance with statutory Government requirements, SSS, PhilHealth and PAGIBIG payments, local area salary requirements, and the appropriate insurances.

The new guarding model in the Philippines in protecting your most valuable assets must be capability, accountability, and compliance!

Security is an essential service, so contact Lockforce today and allow us to provide you with the best security solution.

While the world continues to grapple with the coronavirus pandemic, it is doing far too little to prepare for the future, and possibly even more damaging pandemics.  A report by the Global Preparedness Monitoring Board (GPMB), which is an independent body created by the World Health Organization and the World Bank, the GPMB has indicated that the coronavirus pandemic had revealed how little the world had focused on preparing for such disasters, despite ample warnings that large disease outbreaks were inevitable.

“Failure to learn the lessons of Covid-19 or to act on them with the necessary resources and commitment will mean that the next pandemic, which is sure to come, will be even more damaging,” it warned.

The World Health Organization (WHO) warned Monday, August 03, 2020, that there might never be a “silver bullet” for the new coronavirus, despite the rush to discover effective vaccines. “For now, stopping outbreaks comes down to the basics of public health and disease control.”
