A recognised provider of WAVE and Ask for Angela training
Conduent Transportation have partnered with the Safer Business Network to become the provider of bespoke WAVE and Ask for Angela training to employees working in frontline public open environments, including parking operations and transportation services.
In response to a growing concern of violence against women and girls, Conduent Transportation has designed an extensive training initiative for its on-street parking civil enforcement officers in Oxfordshire, who were among the first in the country to participate in the “Ask for Angela” campaign to help vulnerable members of the public.
WAVE and Ask for Angela training
Training is now available to ensure that staff are adequately prepared to identify and respond to vulnerable people confidently. The Welfare and Vulnerability Engagement Programme (WAVE) provides education about customer welfare and vulnerability and is supported by Ask for Angela campaign materials.
About “Ask for Angela”
The “Ask for Angela” initiative was developed by Lincolnshire County Council to help keep women, on a night out, safe from violence and other threats. Women can discreetly seek help by approaching a hospitality industry staff member or enforcement officer and “Ask for Angela.” This code phrase indicates that the person is in need of help.
