Strike Security/Labor Unrest Services

Effective strike contingency planning can save a company millions in avoided production and delivery delays, decreased risk to company assets and personnel, and prevented lawsuits or National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) violations. Our strike security mission is to:

• Provide adequate planning to assure continued operations throughout a work stoppage,
• Establish an effective deterrent to misconduct through sufficient security posting, and
• Capture any video or other documentation of lawlessness or misconduct, if it does occur, so you can seek quick injunctive relief.

Strike security presents specific challenges not faced by a company’s typical daily guard force. All actions of each individual strike security officer must be within labor strike guidelines established by the NLRB and local and federal laws. Each officer must have the experience and discipline to endure tense, emotionally charged conditions, while not overreacting or losing focus. Our strike security teams have been exclusively assigned to strikes and emergency deployments. They have been specifically trained to remain prepared for disruption, while not violating peaceful picketing rights, important in preventing unfair labor practice accusation.

With experience working thousands of strikes, we’ve learned that the key to success is both extensive training and tenured supervision. With a 48-hour, strike-specific training program and 30+ supervisors with 10-20 years of strike experience, Andrews offers robust training and unparalleled experience in labor unrest/strike security services. Our entire workforce of more than a hundred strike security personnel can be mobilized in 24-72 hours. Whether detailed strike planning is in place or you’ve been surprised by a work stoppage, our asset protection team is responsive, well trained, and accountable. We will help your employees through situations they may have never expected or been through before. Also, through our other services and partnerships, we are able to offer executive protection, temporary labor, logistics or food service, investigative assistance or legal guidance. Andrews International has you covered.
