Occupational Violence Workshop
With recent reports of lifeguards being assaulted, abused, and spat on, it’s more important than ever to ensure that the safety and well-being of our teams are protected. This workshop aims to provide team leaders, pool managers, and supervisors with practical strategies to effectively handle such situations. Attendees will learn valuable techniques on how to de-escalate tense encounters, respond efficiently when conflicts escalate, and prioritise personal safety while fostering a respectful and positive environment for both staff and patrons.
The workshop will feature guest speaker, Erin Cash, who brings with her 12 years of policing experience with Queensland Police. Erin will share her insights into conflict management and safety strategies. Additionally, the session will include a practical self-defence component, ensuring that attendees leave with basic hands-on skills to protect themselves in potentially dangerous situations.
