Network operators deploy engineers across wide geographic areas, including remote sites with limited connectivity and significant personal risk. This article examines what duty of care means in practice for field teams, the specific obligations that apply when staff work in remote or high-risk locations, and how a critical event management platform changes an organisation's ability to meet those obligations when something goes wrong.

Track24 is delighted to announce the promotion of Tayla Saffhill to Head of Business Management, recognising her outstanding contribution since joining the company less than four years ago.

The July 2026 update to the UK National Risk Register introduced seven new threat scenarios, including a formal "digital resilience failure" category, and cyber attacks on water infrastructure and police systems. For operators of Critical National Infrastructure, inclusion in the NRR signals that a threat is no longer a planning option but a planning obligation. This article examines what the updated register requires of CNI operators and how a critical event management platform changes their ability to respond when the scenarios it describes become real.

Maritime operations present some of the most demanding duty of care challenges in any industry. When an incident occurs at sea, whether a vessel emergency, a piracy threat, a medical situation, or a port security event, the response must be coordinated across vast distances, often in degraded communications conditions. Critical event management is what makes that coordination possible.

When a critical event occurs in a city where employees are working, the first question is always the same: who do we need to reach? Most enterprise organisations have the data to answer that question. It sits in their HR systems, their travel management platforms, and their access control records. What they lack is a way to connect that data to a precision notification capability that reaches the right people immediately. This article examines what duty of care is required of employers with a global workforce and how critical event management closes the gap between knowing an incident has occurred and reaching everyone affected by it.

On one of the hottest days of the year, Britain came within a single generator failure of widespread blackouts. Reporting by Oliver Wright in The Times has revealed that the National Energy Systems Operator was operating outside safe limits for multiple periods on June 23, 2026. For organisations across every sector, the event is a reminder that power failure is not a theoretical risk. It is a question of when, not if, and whether you are ready.

Energy infrastructure operations combine high hazard environments, distributed field workforces, and strict regulatory obligations into one of the most demanding critical event management contexts in any sector. When something goes wrong the ability to locate people, communicate at scale, and coordinate the response from a single platform is not optional. It is how the duty of care obligation is met.

The National Cyber Security Centre reported more than 200 cyber incidents against UK Critical National Infrastructure in the year to May 2026, with approximately 75 per cent attributed to state-linked actors. State-sponsored threats are structurally different from opportunistic cybercrime, and the incident response timelines and communication strategies that work for one do not work for the other. This article examines what CNI operators must do differently when the adversary is a nation state rather than a criminal group.

Defence contractors routinely deploy civilian staff and subcontractors into environments where military force protection applies to uniformed personnel only. The duty of care for those civilians sits with the organisation that deployed them. Critical event management is how that obligation is met in practice.

UK councils have statutory emergency planning obligations under the Civil Contingencies Act 2004. As Local Resilience Forum reform reshapes how those obligations are delivered, the gap between planning and response capability is becoming harder to ignore. Critical event management is how modern local authorities are closing it.

A notification template drafted during an incident The message will be too long, too vague, or too late. Organisations that manage critical events well write, approve, and test their notification templates before they are needed. This article covers the SOPs, channel elements, and human factors that lead to emergency notification templates being effective, which scenarios every organisation should have templates for, and how to build a library that actually gets used when it matters.

ISO 31030 sets the international standard for travel risk management. Here is what the communication requirements mean in practice for organisations with internationally mobile staff.

Current consular emergency communication is voluntary, registration-dependent, and largely reactive. Modern diplomatic missions need real-time mass notification to meet their duty of care obligations.

University campuses face complex, multi-building emergencies that fire alarms and broadcast emails cannot handle. Here is what modern campus emergency notification requires.

GSOCs are under pressure to respond faster across more client sites. Mass notification integration is closing the gap between threat detection and coordinated response.

Standard safety apps were not built for oil fields, mines, or remote exploration sites. Here is what extractive sector operations actually require from a safety communication platform.

NIS2 creates binding obligations for incident notification and operational resilience across EU critical infrastructure. Here is what that means for your emergency communication capability.

NGO security managers in fragile environments face rising duty of care obligations. Here is what ISO 31030 and donor requirements now demand of you.

Martyn's Law is now UK legislation. Here is what the standard duty and enhanced duty tiers require, which venues are affected, and why mass notification is central to compliance.

The UK threat level has moved to Severe. An attack is highly likely. In the UK. For business leaders, this is the new business as usual, not about reacting to a single incident.

In the technology sphere, particularly when it comes to data based innovation, privacy is of the uppermost importance. Organisations developing AI and ML technology solutions and harnessing data science should strive to adopt a privacy-first outlook, first and foremost.

What is safety culture? Safety culture isn’t simply about your organisation’s compliance to health and safety policies. It’s also about your employees’ attitude towards these policies.
