Introduction including overview of area inspected and activities taking place
The following is a report on the health and safety inspection conducted at A Private Security Company Operating Base (PSCOB)
The PSCOB is located on a shared site in a remote location primarily administered by UK Government authorities that is positioned on a diplomatic site. Due to this, the PSCOB and all visitors and staff and contractors working within are subject to the Health & Safety at Work Act 1974 and subsequent statutory regulations as if located in the UK.
PSCOB is located in a hostile environment. Emergency procedures for hostile actions are standardised throughout the diplomatic area. They are administered and implemented by UK Government authorities and therefore out of scope of this inspection.
The climate and environmental conditions are extremely hot and dusty in the summer and extremely cold and wet through the winter. With this in mind, PSCOB country management have made it policy that bi-annual health and safety inspections take place.
The PSCOB scope of inspection is the facilities used solely by PSCOB to prepare for and administer (including training) armed close-protection and body-guarding security operations. There are between 25 – 35 staff working within the PSCOB at any given time aged between 25 – 55 yrs. These include a Project Manager, Operations Manager and a number of Team Leaders. The remainder are security operators and both UK and locally employed support staff. There are no young persons, vulnerable persons or disabled persons working at PSCOB because of the dangers and environmental factors. All UK staff are former UK armed forces or UK police employees.
