The Sentinel Mindset

To all my event spaces and event planners….are you fully aware of the risk you take with every event?  

As a planner, it’s crucial to be well-versed in issues surrounding your events, from alcohol permits to security provisions to occupier liability. These topics may not be glamorous, but they are essential to ensuring a successful and safe event. But don't take our word for it - insurance firms and lawyers regularly defend actions and claims against events, sites, and planners that fail to address these issues adequately. Ignoring them can put your clients and guests in danger and leave you open to legal action. Join us for a 20-minute talk with Expert Witness and President of Stay Safe; Steve Summerville that will cover the critical topics every event planner should know to protect their clients, guests, and themselves. Don’t wait until it’s too late - arm yourself with the knowledge you need to handle any situation that may arise confidently.

If you witnessed a person being assaulted right in front of you, what would you do?

In today’s show we speak to Expert Witness and President of Stay Safe Steven Summerville who provides a play-by-play commentary on the assault that took place downtown Toronto directly in-front of security guards who appeared to do nothing other than observe.

We discuss the legal responsibilities of the security operator, the security guard, and even the public and how duty of care plays into the situation.
