Safety Officer

What does the term mean

Role responsible for the security regime and coordination of security measures at the event.

Safety Officer (event safety) makes sure that security plan, stewarding and procedures make sense in real operations and that incidents are handled in a coordinated way.

At larger events, it is the role that keeps the connection between the organizer, the security service and the IZS.

Practical meaning

How Safety Officer applies to a real service

It makes sense mainly when it results in a specific procedure for an object, an event or a team on site.

When is the term resolved

Safety Officer is mainly handled in practice when assembling the team, describing the shift, substitute, responsibility and rules for passing information between people.

Common mistakes in practice

Weaknesses arise when a role does not have a clear task, supervisor, boundary of authority and procedure for non-standard situations.

What to do in practice

If the term applies to your real operation, it connects to Event security. That is where we deal with the specific space, scope, responsibility and next step before deployment.
