Effective strike and labor unrest contingency planning can help save millions of dollars in delayed production and delivery, decrease risk to company assets and personnel and prevent lawsuits from National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) violations. GISS International provides services that minimize risk and disruption to your operations during labor unrest.

How Strike Security Makes a difficult Situation Safer for Everyone

No one plans for a strike to happen. Employees don’t plan to be treated in a way that they believe to be unfair, nor do employers think ahead to when or how often their employees may see fit to strike. Because of this, security at picket lines, protests, and other strike events is often minimal at best.

Striking is not something that should be punished. It is an employee’s fundamental right to express their dissatisfaction and discord with their employer. However, strike situations can often lead to dangerous crowds, hostile conditions, and may even lead to injury or death. Preventing these catastrophes is what we do here at GISS International every day.

Here’s how we can put our experience to work when your teammates or workers go on strike:

Rapid Response

One of the best things about our strike security services is that we can respond quickly. Many employers or staff members are caught unprepared for a strike, leaving them vulnerable to property damage, personal injury, or worse. Our team can be on site quickly, to help you manage the strike situation before it becomes dangerous.

Property Surveillance and Evidence Gathering

When employees strike, it is not unheard of for property damage and interpersonal violence to take place. Tensions are high, emotions are out of control, and this anger can lead to combustion when partnered with the physical effects of crowding and ill preparation. To prevent your business property from being damaged – or to take note of damages as they occur for legal purposes – our staff can provide the presence you need. Likewise, if unrest does occur, we can take note of disputes, involved parties, and damages to people or property to provide evidence in later court cases. When your staff is on strike, we’ve got you covered.

Security Staffing and Strike Preparation Services

We don’t just offer our services to those who are witnessing their company’s staff go on strike. We are also a voice for those who are looking to achieve better labor relations through striking. If you and your coworkers believe you have a case for striking, contact us. We can help you plan a safe, peaceful protest event that respects both property and the people involved – and can help you move negotiations forward.

If you find yourself in need of strike security services in the New York or New Jersey area, contact us. We can provide you a quick estimate and service that can be on-site even quicker, to make sure your strike event is a safe and orderly as possible. No one expects a strike to happen, but when it does, you don’t have to leave the safety of yourself, your coworkers or your staff in jeopardy. Set up strike security and take one less worry off your mind.
