Course Overview
Would you know what to do if you spotted a suspicious item at work? Would you be able to recognise one if you saw it?
Our Suspicious Items short course looks at suspicious things that can be mailed or left in the workplace or any public areas. It focuses on two main things: how to identify them and what to do when you spot one.
Learners find out what to do immediately and how to alert the appropriate authorities when the area has been cleared.

Get a QuoteThe Importance of Suspicious Items Training
The incorrect handling of a suspicious item or package can be highly dangerous for all employees, visitors to the workplace and the general public. It is therefore vital that everyone knows what to do in the event of finding a suspicious item.
Suspicious items training gives workers the peace of mind of knowing which procedures to follow if they find themselves in this situation.
