Safety Wristbands and ID Bands for Emergencies

After a number of serious incidents at events, The government are soon to introduce the ‘Protect Duty’ legislation to improve event security. Our safety wristbands are a great way to comply with this new initiative, providing a clear and obvious place to display emergency contact details during events or trips, keeping your event attendees accounted for and easily identifiable in the event of an emergency or serious incident. View our safety wristband products below. 

What is the protect Duty Legislation?

The legislation will apply to those operating certain locations and venues with regards to increasing their “preparedness for and protection” from a terrorist attack. Those running events will be required to take on additional security measures, depending on the size and nature of the activities that take place there. This could mean that event attendees will benefit from clear access control and emergency wristbands for quick identification of guests. 

This legislation affects venues with the capacity to hold 100 or more people. Such places include: 

- Public entertainment venues such as stadiums, tourist attractions, and emporiums. 
- Large organisational locations such as gyms and retail centres
- Other public places that may pose a terrorist threat such as parks and gardens.
- Places of employment with over 250 staff members who operate in publicly accessible sites will also be responsible for implementing additional security measures. 

From a venue operator's viewpoint, it is imperative to stay in compliance with the government's proposed "Protect Duty" plan. If the law to pass it is implemented, each establishment will be expected to do its due diligence to keep our children and the people of the UK safe from any possible terrorist attack. 

 

How to keep your event attendees safe with our safety wristbands

  

What better way to keep you and your team safe than by incorporating emergency contact wristbands? The benefits of having each staff member at a large event or attraction centre, or each of your attendees having an ID band on at all times far outweigh what the overall cost entails.  

Consider common event risks you might have encountered at previous events and how easily they could have been avoided by incorporating a safety bracelet for your entire staff. 

 - ID wristbands increase the success of your Crowd management. 

 - Emergency contact bracelets help to identify people who are lost, injured or need medical attention. 

 - Safety wristbands can also keep your event safe by identifying part-time or volunteer staff, so you know who is allowed behind the scenes during your event.

 

Safety features of our wristbands 

Our quality ID wristbands are designed to help improve the safety and security of the experience for everyone involved in public events. Our wristbands incorporate a number of Safety features such as:

 - Bright colour options and colour coding for easy group identification 
 - The ability to customise the emergency contract bracelets allows a large group, such as kids on a school field trip, to all have the same information or safety bracelets that tell medical or allergy information in case of emergencies.  
 - The ability to quickly identify who has been cleared at a security-level venue, who is allowed backstage, who is a guest, or who is an employee. 
 - We also have tear-resistant, one-time-use safety wristbands and reusable safety bracelets made of cloth or silicone.

This feature ensures that the ID bands cannot be passed on to another user or reused for additional attendance.

    Customising your ID band also gives the security of confirming the wearer's identity and where they might belong.

    Edit answer he
  • Do I need a safety wristband if I'm organising an event?

    Yes. To comply with the 'Protect Duty' law being set into place by the government, you must have safety wristbands. Even if the law does not pass, you should still consider protecting your employees, clients, and guests with safety wristbands.
  • Will wristbands help to keep my attendees safe?

    Absolutely! No matter what type of ID wristband you supply your attendees, you can relax knowing the emergency contact bracelets will help keep everyone safe by identifying where they belong and where they have access to within each event. They also help keep those unauthorised visitors away from your event.
