RTC are proud to be able to offer our clients the Maybo SAFERwork Conflict Management
training program.
Who is this course for?
This programme has been designed to assist staff members in dealing with customers
and service users that may become confrontational and aggressive. The training
enables the candidates to safely and effectively manage aggressive and challenging
behaviour within the work place.
The course has been designed to be of benefit to all sectors and roles but is of
particular importance to:
Staff who routinely deal with potentially confrontational situations
Customer Services personnel
Front line staff
Security personnel
Lone workers
Local Authority staff
Transport staff such as Bus, Train, Tube and Taxi drivers
Why should I take this course?
Unfortunately in the world we live in today arguments and confrontation seems to be
commonplace, even at times intruding into our work environment. Many of us have
had to face insults and verbal abuse within our working day, indeed it is often seen
as part of the job. The real problem lies in the fact that the situation can, without
the correct approach, rapidly spiral out of control and escalate to a potentially
dangerous or violent situation. Until the creation of Maybo’s Conflict Management
training programme, there was a lack of recognised training to tackle this pressing
issue. This Maybo programme enables candidates to understand how a situation can
escalate out of control, and by understanding this candidates are given the
necessary skills to calm a situation, without resorting to the use of force.
What does the course cover?
This programme has been designed to enable candidates to look at how confrontation
occurs within their work place and role. The course then builds upon this by equipping
the candidate with the knowledge and skills to prevent and defuse these situations
in the future, as well as enabling them to reduce the potential risks to both themselves
and others. Throughout the course we will examine:
Health and safety responsibilities
Policy and guidance
Identifying potential flashpoints
Triggers and inhibitors
Proactive service delivery
Risk reduction
Verbal and non-verbal communication
Calming skills and techniques
How to manage incidents
Post-incident considerations and reporting
What level of training does my role require?
Candidates are given training relevant to the skills necessary for their role and the
location they work in. In order to enable us to correctly tailor the programme we will
perform a training needs assessment, which ensures that the training is designed to
suit the needs of the candidates.
Do I have to take an exam to pass the course?
No, candidates do not have to sit a formal examination on the course. However,
candidates must be able to demonstrate to the trainer that they have understood
the subject material, techniques and skills that they have been taught.
Will I get a certificate if I pass?
Yes. Once the candidate has been signed off by the trainer they will receive a
nationally recognised certificate accredited by City & Guilds, and issued by Maybo
approximately two weeks later.
What benefits does this course offer?
This programme helps employer’s to meet their duty of care to employees who
work in roles that require them to deal with people in confrontational situations,
as well as:
Reducing assaults against staff
Increases the confidence and performance of managers and staff
Creates a safer environment for staff and service users
Enhances customer service
Reduces the need to resort to force
Protects the organisation from compensation claims and reputation damage
