Module Six: Safety and security at workplace, home, travel and in field

Probable threat scenarios during travel and how to secure oneself (movement and car)

    Principles of Route Selection

    - Avoid routine
    - Secrecy of times and dates (Don’t write on the travel requisition form
    the destination and time/ Don’t tell the people you are going on
    holiday or servants)
    - While on road maintain a maximum possible safe speeds
    - Use the right vehicle – on mountain roads take four by four jeep not a car
    - Take the safest NOT shortest route
    - Make sure that others (colleagues) know the routes you take and the
    expected time of arrival and departure
    - Keep communication with office and colleagues open
