T3 AND PHOENIX FIRST SECURITY TEAMS TO BECOME SHOUT-UP! CERTIFIED

Security personnel providers T3 Security, and Phoenix Security have become Shout-Up! certified

The certification means Newcastle’s door staff are the first nationwide to have a consistent procedure for applying comprehensive bystander intervention training to all their interactions and a publicly available sexual harassment policy.

Shout-Up! certification, which lasts for two years with six-monthly assessments, means all team members understand the impacts of sexual harassment on those who experience it and know how to appropriately support and intervene to end incidents safely, ultimately working towards the elimination of sexual harassment from our city.

Peter Moore, Director of T3 Security said: “We’re delighted to be able to take part in such an innovative initiative and hugely support the message behind the Shout Up! campaign.

“Violence against women has been an ongoing problem within the nighttime economy, and educating the security and hospitality staff that work in it about how to spot the signs and trigger points will provide much-needed support in the ongoing fight to irradicate violence against women and provide a safer social experience.”
