Events and Mass Gatherings
Readiness training. Guarding.Tech does not grant any official certificate, licence or authority.
Weddings, concerts, cricket matches, product launches, college fests, religious festivals and political rallies all bring large crowds to one place for a short time. Many of the people working there are new to the site, and some are volunteers. As a supervisor, you may lead the guards for one zone, one gate or the whole event.
Focus: an event is safe because of the planning done before the gates open. On the day, your job is to make the plan work, spot problems early and report them up the chain.
