DRINK SPIKING - A SAFER CORPORATE EVENT

To companies in the City and other business environments, the company social event is an important date in the commercial calendar. Unfortunately, the easy availability of Rohypnol, GHB and other "date-rape" drugs has caused embarrassment to the hosts and distress to it's victims.

Answers Investigation provide a high profile prevention service, attending professional events armed with drink testing kits that are made available to guests. Dressed identifiably, they will circulate and make it known that anyone concerned may have their drink tested at any time. The service is high profile, an influence that not only provides reassurance but more importantly dissuades perpetrators from attempting to interfere with drinks. At the same time they will provide advice on safeguards, prevention, and what to do if someone suspects their drink or cigarettes have been doctored

The danger at office parties is deemed so serious as to cause authorities to produce a warning televison advert showing a man furtively slipping a pill into a woman's drink at a Christmas party with the words: "Drug rape is happening, don't let it happen to you" A spokesman for the Metropolitan Police Sapphire (sexual offences) squad is quoted as saying:
"The office party is a very dangerous environment and women must be on their guard. You are much more likely to be raped by a work colleague than by anybody else. The message to women is: Be on your guard. Don't put your glass down and if someone offers to buy you a drink, keep an eye on what they are doing. We are sure dozens of incidents are not being reported to us"

Attendance at events by Answers staff provides many benefits:

Guests at the event feel reassured and confident
Doubt is eliminated
PR value demonstrates the organiser's commitment to providing a safe environment
The team's visual profile discourages and dissuades would-be perpetrators

Sadly, one client is now intending to use our facility as a result of such an incident at the firm's Christmas party. While they are keen to provide security and protection for their staff, their direct motivation is as an effect of the potential liability and potential PR disaster that arose from the incident concerned. In that instance, the person drugged was fortunately only the victim of no more than the drug's effects, but the perpetrator remains unknown.
