Safety Equipment at Live Events

Public safety is the paramount consideration for organisers when large groups of people attend live concerts, sporting events and exhibitions. If not properly managed, crushes and other accidents can have calamitous and even tragic consequences. Responsibility for the wellbeing of crowd members and staff lies with event organisers. They need to be assured that the proper health and safety checks have been implemented throughout the whole building, allowing attendees to come and go in a safe manner. There have been various research think-tanks into crowd behaviour which in turn have led to strict government regulations regarding safety requirements. To assist with this, event organisers choose specialised systems to help reduce overcrowding and maintain the safety of an audience.
