There are many reasons why a building, or a group of buildings may need to be evacuated including:

• Fires
• Chemical Spills
• Toxic or Explosive Gas Releases,
• Explosions
• Violent Behavior, and
• Bomb Threats.

The larger the building, the more organization is required to ensure everyone is evacuated effectively and as safely as possible. But regardless of the size or type of building or buildings, or number of employees, every organization should have a tried and tested evacuation plan.

This program covers:

• The Evacuation Plan
• The Evacuation Team
• The Chief Warden
• Your Responsibility

We live in a digital world, and many of the threats that we face, in our lives and at work, are now digital ones.

Cyber threats are a major issue for organizations, with the possibility of data breaches, financial loss and loss of valuable information.

The most common threats are:

• Phishing
• Malware
• Ransomware
• and Insider threats

This program will cover the types of cybersecurity threats and how best to identify them.

RUNNING TIME: 10 Minutes

A particularly dangerous form of cybersecurity risk is that of insider threats.

These are cyber threats that originate from within the organization which makes them especially difficult to detect and deal with.

Because an insider threat does not need to go through the process of gaining access to the system – as they’re already inside – they are often capable of going undetected for longer, and doing more damage, than external threats.

Malware is software created and deployed to compromise or disrupt computer systems. The consequences of a system becoming infected with malware can be devastating, including the breakdown of normal operations, the accessing of sensitive information by criminal actors, disruption to business and financial loss.

Any professional computer system should have malware protection set up, but there are also ways in which an individual can identify the possibility of malware, allowing them to take steps to prevent damage.

Phishing is a type of social engineering – the practice of manipulating people into giving up valuable information.

Signs to look out for to avoid phishing scams include:

• Generic greetings in an email, or a style of writing that doesn’t seem to fit the source
• Unexplained invoices or references to unknown purchases
• Links to “update payment details”
• Misspelled words
• Any claims about being entitled to refunds or rewards, that require a link to be clicked in order to access

RUNNING TIME: 3 Minutes

One specific and very damaging type of malware is ransomware. This is software that infiltrates a system and stops it working, by locking or encrypting files to prevent access to them. The user of the ransomware will then demand a payment to unlock the system.

Browsing the internet is one of the main sources of danger when it comes to your devices. It is a constant exchange of data through uploading and downloading with the website you are visiting.

When you’re using social media, it’s important to always be aware of what your social media presence might be exposing you to.

Public networks can be a major threat to maintaining digital hygiene as it can leave your devices vulnerable to threats from others connected to the same network.

RUNNING TIME: 4 Minutes

As programs that are not updated are more vulnerable to threats, old and unused software and apps should be deleted from your computer or device.

Often software providers will release updates or patches that have been created to address security weaknesses that have recently been identified.

Antivirus and Anti-malware software is also very important for digital systems.

Most organizations will have a person, department, or contractor that is responsible for the management of computers and digital systems in an organization.

Some of the practical steps outlined in this program may be managed entirely by such a department. Regardless, a basic understanding helps you be a first line of defense for your organization, and you can apply these learnings when using your personal devices, computers, and systems to help keep yourself safe whenever you’re online.

One of the best ways to defend against digital threats like computer viruses, software bugs, data loss and privacy breaches is through the regular practice of Digital Hygiene.

Digital Hygiene is about learning habits and practices to keep your systems and information secure.

Examples of Digital Hygiene include:

• Keeping the operating system up to date
• Regularly updating software
• Using antivirus software
• Cleaning devices of unnecessary sensitive information
• Abiding by a ‘clean-desk’ policy, and
• Following password security protocols

All workplaces make use of some sort of Display Screen Equipment. Display Screen Equipment, sometimes referred to as DSE, is any device, or piece of equipment that has an alphanumeric or graphic display screen.

Equipment categorized as display screen equipment include:

• Desktop and laptop computers,
• Tablets,
• Smartphones,
• Cash register displays,
• LCD monitors, and
• All varieties of touchscreens

Tasks requiring prolonged use of display screen equipment can present real hazards to users. Use of that equipment requires proper management to control the hazards and reduce the risks to DSE users.

This program aims to raise awareness of DSE issues in the workplace. By paying close attention to the requirements of the job and the design of the workplace, the threat to individuals’ health and safety at work can be made as small, and the workplace experience made as comfortable, as possible.
