Workplace Security Awareness

awarenessThis course provides guidance to individuals and organizations on how to improve the security in your workplace. No workplace—be it an office building, construction site, factory floor, or retail store—is immune from security threats.

Employees are often the target of these threats as well as the organization's first line of defense against them. Threats endanger the confidentiality, integrity, and security of your workplace, as well as your virtual workplace and computer systems. This course presents information on how employees can contribute to your organization's security.

Security Begins With You

We live in a world of ever-increasing risk. No workplace – be it a construction site, office building, factory floor, or retail store – is immune from these threats. Risks threaten worker safety, employee morale, and your company’s economic livelihood.

Some threats are intentional acts, such as sabotage and violence. Others are caused by natural disasters or man-made accidents. No matter the threat, all employees have a responsibility to help their company protect its employees, information, data, and facilities.

Employees are often the target of these threats as well as the organization's first line of defense against them. Threats endanger the confidentiality, integrity, and security of your workplace, as well as your virtual workplace and computer systems.

As an employee, you are an integral part of your organization’s security solution. From the mailroom to the boardroom, security is a shared responsibility. Simply put, security begins with you!
