Putting the Safety of Our Communities First During COVID-19

As featured in the Times Columnist, Blackbird Security is proud to help in the fight against the spread of COVID-19 by ensuring the health and safety of staff and customers of the businesses we serve


Following social distancing protocols, most of us are staying at home as much as possible to help slow the spread of COVID-19. There are times, though, when it is necessary for us to leave our homes for essential items, including groceries and pharmaceutical goods. Venturing out comes with the risk of increasing social proximity, putting ourselves and fellow shoppers at a higher risk. This is where Blackbird Security comes in.

How is Blackbird Security Helping?

Blackbird Security is proud to be on the front lines of reducing the spread of COVID-19. Following Public Health guidelines, we are ensuring that necessary physical distancing is implemented, providing a safe experience for shoppers at our retail partners serving essential services. We do this by limiting the number of shoppers in stores to reduce social proximity; regularly sanitizing commonly touched equipment, such as shopping carts; and ensuring that  folks waiting to enter the store do so with appropriate physical distance between one another.

These examples are seemingly small, but extremely powerful measures to protect our community against the spread of COVID-19. We couldn’t be prouder to offer our services, in the name of public health and safety, during this unprecedented time.
