Risk Assessment in Shopping Centres: Why is it needed?

Effective, efficient and tailor-made retail security management plans are required for shopping centres, to ensure the safety of patrons, store employees, management staff, and physical assets within their premises.

What is Risk Assessment? The process of identifying possible hazards and threats to the establishment and their level of vulnerability to threats.
The risks are assessed by measuring the levels of threat and vulnerability individually. When neither of the two is present, chances of risk would be thin. To ensure zero risks, security management plans are devised to reduce threats and decrease the establishment’s vulnerabilities.

Southern Cross Group Supports OzHarvest Market

The OzHarvest Market is Australia’s first ever rescued food supermarket, stocked with produce that has either been donated or would otherwise go to waste, but is perfectly edible. Based on a ‘take what you need, give what you can’ philosophy, their purpose is to make rescued food available to everyone, especially those who need it most.

The Market offers a range of products from fresh fruit and vegetables, bread, tinned goods, frozen meals and drinks to toiletries and home products.

As supporters of sustainability in all forms, Southern Cross Group were delighted to support this forward thinking charitable initiative by offering pro-bono security services to the Market’s Grand Opening at Kensington.

Some of the official partners in attendance at the event included the Mayor of Randwick and various supporters and board members. Southern Cross Group would like to wish OzHarvest continued success in all their endeavors.

Human Resource Leadership Forum Canberra

Last Friday, Southern Cross Group’s National Training & Development Manager Michael Robinson took a trip to Canberra to attend a leader’s forum for HR presented by the Australian Human Resources Institute. The event sought to address the challenges faced by Human Resource Managers and how to provide regular feedback to staff as well as discussing the relevance of performance reviews in a dynamic working environment and an ever evolving world. Some 100 different HR Managers from throughout Australia attended to hear insights given by Blair Conley, PSM Secretary of the NSW Department of Premier and Cabinet and Michael was lucky enough to get some one-on-one mentoring.

Southern Cross Group believes in the importance of Industry functions for both networking and awareness and look forward to attending further events such as this.
