In customer-facing industries, employees often find themselves in challenging situations, including dealing with aggressive customers. It's an unfortunate reality, but there are ways you, as an employer, can help protect your employees well-being. During our recent webinar, Lisa White, Head of Protective Services at the Bank of New Zealand, introduced us to the concept of safe havens—spaces designated by employees where they can step away when they recognise unsafe or escalating behavior. These spaces allow them to remove themselves from harmful situations and find a safe, supportive place to regroup. It's a small change that can make a big difference in preserving both safety and mental health in the workplace. 💚 Take a look at this clip from the session and let us know in the comments: How do you support your teams in high-pressure situations? 👇 #HealthAndSafety #EmployeeWellbeing #CustomerService

Let’s face it: customer aggression is becoming more and more of a reality for industries that rely on customer-facing teams. But how do we tackle this head-on? In our recent webinar, we had the honour of being joined by Lisa White, Head of Protective Services at the Bank of New Zealand, who shared some incredibly insightful strategies on how they approach this tricky issue. One of the most powerful tools BNZ uses is a behavioural matrix – it’s all about understanding the actual behaviour of the customer and using that information to shape how the situation is managed. This allows BNZ to respond in a way that both keeps their staff safe and sets clear expectations for outcomes. A smart, thoughtful approach, and one we think is brilliant! 💡 Curious?
