The Truth is in the Eyes

The Truth is in the Eyes

By Pratik Kadam

The Test for each security & safety personnel to confirm for DWI & DUI when Breathalysers are not effective to avoid Drunk Driving or menace.

For Your Eyes Only as it is said Eyes don’t lie.

Addiction & the impacts in organization’s security culture.

What exactly is addiction?

According to general agreement, it relies on the tripod of

  • More and more medications are needed to get the same results due to TOLERANCE.
  • A psychological dependence on the drug's effect is referred to as HABITUATION.
  • PHYSICAL DEPENDENCE Drug use for a prolonged period of time causes adisruption of normal physiological processes.

Addiction is a form of physical and mental bondage that requires ongoing use in order to partially maintain physiological equilibrium.

As a result, there is no doubt that both moral and physical destruction will occur. Alcohol is typically thought of as a stimulant by the general public, although it only lowers inhibitions rather than giving the sense of simulation.

Alcohol is actually an anaesthetic that has chemical properties similar to Chloroform and Ether.

You're becoming anaesthetized as you consume alcohol.

The Truth is in the Eyes

The Test for each security & safety personnel to confirm for DWI & DUI when Breathalysers are not effective to avoid Drunk Driving or menace.

For Your Eyes Only as it is said Eyes don’t lie.

  • There are a variety of equipment that can aid in DWI (driving while intoxicated) and DUI (driving under the influence) situations since the security and safety of you and the general public are of the utmost significance. Although many security professionals had avoided employing breathalysers due to the social distancing standard, the COVID 19 has revolutionized the security detection and criminal prevention procedures so that they are no longer used.
  • Instead, all employees are now adopting a variety of workarounds and potential hacks that have circumvented the breath analyser’s technology.
  • Security professionals and transport security should always prepare for failure and what-if situations when handling tangible and intangible assets because they still need improvement and augmentation.
  •   In general, security specialists must adopt alternative strategies to strengthen security and ensure that safety and security are not compromised.
  • Even though the procedure may be cumbersome, there will still be a deterrent among the crew. In general, security experts must employ a range of strategies when establishing that they have good reason to detain DWI and DUI suspects.
  • The three most common BAC analysis techniques are breath, blood, and urine tests. Sweat is also used, however in addition to creating SOPs, specialized equipment, methods, and training are recommended.
  • One such procedure is the SFST (Standardized Field Sobriety Test), in which a staff member trained or familiar with SFST will proceed for the clarification if they suspect anyone who might be under the influence of drugs or alcohol.
  • With this kind of test, the personnel conducting it will be able to determine the symptoms through the analysis displayed by the suspect under the suspicion whether it is a negative test or positive test.

What is SFST Test?

  1. When a machine or other approach isn't functioning, due to any other challenges which restrict the usage of breathalyzer tests, and whenever there isn't an instant alternative solution available, the security personnel will execute this directive, which is followed by a series of tests.
  2. This test includes a meticulous observation of eye movements. An individual under the effects of drugs or alcohol may exhibit various observable behaviours which are not to his favor, and his eye will begin involuntary movement from left to right and vice versa, which is termed as HGN (Horizontal Gaze Nystagmus). To ascertain what, if anything, is affecting the driver, the specialists use information from 12 tests, including eye reaction, heart rate, blood pressure, the capacity to walk in a straight line, muscle tone, and counting to 30 while keeping the eyes closed and tilting the head back.
  3. While a drug recognition expert may not be able to pinpoint the precise substance in a driver's system, he can help law enforcement by indicating whether the defendant was under the influence of a stimulant, depressant, inhalant, cannabis, or other type of drug and what the impact would have been on his driving.

Standardized Field Sobriety Test (SFST) Describe Nystagmus.

  1. Nystagmus is characterised by repetitive, abnormal eye movements in which a "slow" movement pulls the eye away from the target and a second movement pulls it back. The movement may be rotating (Nystagmus rotary), vertical (nystagmus vertical), horizontal (horizontal nystagmus), or a mix of these motions. Nystagmus can be pendular or jerk-type, variable in amplitude and frequency, and it can be made worse or better by fixation, gaze position, or closing one eye (latent).
  2. To enhance the protection and safety of every stakeholder while providing transport for commuting to workplace, security team should receive DRE training. Consequently, every business should proactively train the security personnel in DRE (Drug Recognition Expert), viewing it as a crucial component of training. Organizations always have aimed to establish drug- and alcohol-free workplaces, so in order to implement this policy, every security personnel must undergo the fundamental DRE training.
  3. The condition known as nystagmus causes rapid, uncontrollable eye movement. The eyeballs can move: up and down (vertical nystagmus), side to side (horizontal nystagmus), and in a circle (rotary nystagmus) The movement, which typically involves both eyes, can be slow or swift.
  4. When gazing in particular directions, the eyes could tremble more. Nystagmus patients may tilt or turn their heads to improve their vision. The eye motions are slowed down as a result. Nystagmus is defined as irregular, involuntary eye movements, which might be quick or slow oscillatory movements.
  5. Nystagmus, by definition, begins with a gradual eye movement away from the visual target.
  6. The eye is brought back to the visual target by the second movement. If the eye returns to the visual target with the second movement. The second movement is referred to as sluggish nystagmus, or pendular nystagmus.
  7. Nystagmus is referred as jerk nystagmus if the second movement is rapid. Conventionally, the fast phase of nystagmus is designated after the direction of jerk nystagmus, such as right-beating nystagmus. The fast phase is to the patient's right when they have a right-beating nystagmus.
  8. Therefore, it will be up to the management to take the necessary action to prevent any disciplinary action being taken against the suspicious staff for non-cooperation or not being willing to the aforementioned test.
  9.   In addition, the security guard who has received DRE training will frequently ask for a test for horizontal gaze nystagmus (HGN).
  10. One of the several field sobriety tests used by police to evaluate whether a person's blood alcohol level is too high is the herky-jerky eye movement test, or HGN.
  • Nystagmus waveforms

The four components of the horizontal gaze nystagmus test, which are conducted on both eyes, include smooth pursuit, maximum deviation, prior to 45 degrees, and vertical nystagmus. Nystagmus waveforms are named for their slow period. The stimulus used in the horizontal gaze nystagmus DWI testing is often a finger or a pen held about 12 inches from the test subject's nose. These instructions are given to the person doing the SFTS for horizontal gaze nystagmus:

  1. Please take off your eyewear, stand with your feet together, and place your hands by your sides.
  2. Maintain eye contact with the stimulus while keeping your head motionless until the test is finished back to the centre, then to the left, far right, and right.
  3. Officer search for equal pupil size and overt neurological signs when looking for equal tracking (even a Security officer has not received medical training).

Smooth chase is the name given to the initial horizontal gaze nystagmus test.

  • Security personnel will twice move the stimulus in a person's eye from the centre to the far left and back, then to the far right and back. It is necessary for the stimulus to move at least twice as quickly from the centre to the side as it does from the side to the centre. If the security officer assert that the pursuit was not smooth and an eye jerked, they will mark the observation.
  • The first horizontal gaze nystagmus tests is called smooth pursuit. Security personnel will twice move the stimulus from the center of a person’s eye to the far left and back to the center, followed by far right and back to center. The stimulus (pen, or any straight object where individual will concentrate) is required to be moved at a speed of at least two seconds from the center to the side and then at least two seconds back to the center. If the police claim that an eye jerked, i.e. there was not smooth pursuit, they will mark the test as a clue of intoxication.
  • The stimulus is then moved to one side and maintained in that position in the maximum deviation test to identify separate nystagmus. Even sober persons will have some type of nystagmus that is apparent, making the concept of separate nystagmus somewhat ambiguous. A security guard will move the stimulus during the test at a rate of at least two seconds, from the centre to one side.
  • The stimulus will be maintained at its greatest deviation for at least four seconds before being shifted back toward the centre at a rate greater than two seconds per second. It is carried out for each eye. A prominent and continuous nystagmus at maximal deviation for both eyes will be noted by police as a clue.
  • In the next test, known as the before to 45 degree test, police must move the stimulus slowly from immediately in front of a person's nose to a person's shoulder at a rate of at least 4 seconds. Police are obliged to conduct the test twice for each eye and note the angle at which nystagmus is noticed. Nystagmus will be marked by security as a DWI clue if it is noticed before 45 degrees.
  • Finally, the test for vertical gaze nystagmus is administered by raising the stimulus until a person’s eyes are elevated as far as possible for 4 seconds. Any jerking of a person’s eye will result in a positive clue for DWI.
  • There are a total of 3 clues per eye, in addition to a single clue for vertical gaze nystagmus. Based on NHTSB research, if 4 or more clues are observed it is likely that a person’s BAC is at least .03%. Most people call .03% the legal limit, but it is actually the illegal floor for DWI in India. A person who has .03% BAC (or greater) may be charged with DWI in India
  •   Like all of the SFSTs involved in DWI stops, the horizontal gaze nystagmus test is highly subjective—and the results are only visible to the police.
  • Considerable change in Pupil size will be noticed when certain drug consumed, remember some drugs will increase the Pupil size.
  • While some drug consumed with alcohol will not affect the Pupil size but when light focused over the Iris will react to contract the size slowly or fast.

This is the clue where trained DRE will note the observation.

Walk and Turn DWI Field Sobriety Test

  • Nine heel-to-tie steps in one way, then nine steps back, make up the DWI walk and turn SFST. Security personnel are instructed to follow the following procedures while administering the walk-and-turn test:
  • Put your left foot on the line first, followed by your right foot on the line in front of your left, with your right foot's heel resting against your left foot's toe. Wait until I instruct you to begin before doing so.
  • Do you comprehend? Take 9 heel-to-toe steps on the line (as shown) when I tell you to start, then take 9 heel-to-toe steps back down the line. Keep your front foot on the line as you turn on the ninth step, turn while taking several tiny steps with the opposite foot (as shown), and take nine heel-toe steps back down the line.
  • Make sure to maintain your arms at your sides, count your steps aloud, gaze at your feet, and make sure.
  • The exam will start after someone says they understand the instructions. We'll repeat any instructions that weren't clear. The following 8 indicators are checked for DWI indications.
  • Can't maintain balance while following directions
  • Stops moving, fails to heel-toe, or steps off the path.
  • Uses arms for balance
  • Improper turn
  • Incorrect number of steps.

If a person has a BAC of.03% or higher and at least two other factors point to it being. As was previously stated, that is recognised as DWI per se in India. In fact, someone who is completely sober may give the majority of the hints because they are asked to administer a test on demand without having heard the directions or read them beforehand.

Field Sobriety Test for DWI with One Leg Up

Standing on one leg with the other lifted just a little bit off the ground is the final STFT for DWI. The following instructions are given by police to those taking the one-leg stand test:

  • Place your hands at your sides and stand with your feet together (which is demonstrated)
  • Remain in place unless otherwise instructed.
  • When I instruct you to, lift one leg—either one—about 6 inches off the floor, pointing the foot forward, keeping both legs straight, and looking at the elevated foot. Count aloud starting with 1001, then 1002, then 1003, and so on until instructed to stop.
  • Do you comprehend the directions?

The fact that the test has a time limit of 30 seconds is not disclosed in advance or in the instructions by the authorities. Security personnel list the following four indicators as DWI warning signs:

  • Hops while balancing; • Sways while balancing; • Uses arms to balance;

According to the study, it is likely that someone is under the influence of alcohol if they exhibit 2 more signs or can't balance for 30 seconds on one leg. Even a sober person could find it challenging to balance on one leg for 30 seconds, similar to the walk and turn test.

To Perform or Not Perform SFSTs during a DWI Stop

  • In contrast to the request to undergo a chemical test, which is typically a Breathalyzer and has no legal repercussions, a skilled DWI defence lawyer can challenge the results of any test conducted during a DWI stop, whether it involves standardised tests or coordination tests. A knowledgeable DWI defence attorney can contest the findings of any test performed during a DWI stop, whether it involves standardised testing or coordination tests, in contrast to the request to submit to a chemical test, which is often a Breathalyzer and has no legal implications.
  • In addition to other civil penalties, refusal to take a breathalyser results in the immediate suspension of a person's driver's licence and can be used as proof of guilt in court. However, refusing to take the SFST or coordination test just prevents the evidence from being used in court. Even if a person avoids SFSTs even though they would have fared well, the prosecution and/or jury will never know. Similar to how if someone performs poorly and rejects SFSTs.
  • MARIJUANA DUI: THE MODIFIED ROMBERG BALANCE TEST
  • Before starting the Modified Romberg Balance Test, the officer gives the subject 30 seconds to estimate, lean his or her head back slightly, and close their eyes. When the patient feels that 30 seconds have gone by, they are encouraged to shout "stop," tilt their heads forward, and open their eyes.
  • The Modified Romberg Balance Test evaluates the subject's internal clock and balance while looking for eye or body tremors. Anywhere between 25 and 35 seconds is regarded as normal in order to estimate 30 seconds. You are doing well if you say "stop" at any time between 25 and 35 seconds.

SFST CHART FOR DUI, DWI

The Moral is that Security professional in an organization should not entirely rely over the on part technological aspects they should also check out for different options like Camera which can give visible clue & as part of security profession there are certain limitations & the set of rules where an Security professional need to adhere with the SOP’s

It should also be noted that the test has its Pros & Cons which is another aspect of the topic.

The Importance of Team Effort in Security?

Security has become a major concern for many individuals and organizations too. Being secured and maintaining secured proximity on the given premises falls in the hands of many professionals.

There is a public security force like local law enforcement teams, armed forces, and special forces from the military. Apart from these public security teams, there is one other big player in the market which provides the services of security for particular individuals and also for organizations. And that is the private security industry with lots of skilled security professionals with different name tags as titles in the security departments.

But to ensure the safety and security of an organization or a nation can be only achieved when there is a collective effort from many individuals. The borders of a nation are not guarded or patrolled by one agent. The trophies which are glories for a nation or for a school team are not won by individuals. Rome was not built in one day they say, but in my opinion, we should all start saying that it was also not built by one person.

All those glories and victories are not an individual’s work or efforts, it was a collective effort that was achieved with the involvement of many individuals and contributions made by many people. To make those great establishments and outcomes happen the world needed teams and team efforts.

So, let’s look into the significant role of the team effort in the life of security professionals and the security department's work efficiency.

WELCOME TO CORPSECURITY AFFILIATE PROGRAM

Tell us about yourself and how you want to promote CorpSecurity.

The world of ants and their body sizes are the tiniest things that can be seen by the naked eyes. Although they are said to be great hard workers people often forget to mention their other capabilities. One of such unnoticed abilities of ants is that they are always a team player.

Have you ever seen ants during the winters? They don’t come out to gather food in the winters, all that they want will be procured before the season of fall only.

Ants can be a great inspiration for any creature on this planet. If those tiny creatures can build their own pits together which is impossible for a snake. Think of what humans can achieve

Likewise, if the security which an individual wishes to have or an organization, they will prefer candidates from the private security industry who can be a great team player.

In any field, it is the team effort that can always be an efficient way to achieve any motive in their respective fields. Team effort can be simplified in words by saying that it is a collective work of all the individuals in a group or team with each individual contributing their efforts to make the assigned work a success. To prove this point we don’t need to be an intellectual or the smartest person in the rooms, the ants can deliver this message to us by showing their exemplary acts by following the orders of their leaders and being disciplined all the time.

How will team effort help in security?

Team effort always plays a big part in any given task. When it comes to providing security and keeping a perimeter secured enough, the entire security department should work together to make it possible.

Most of you might be familiar with organic chemistry. In organic chemistry, any chemical compound or formula can be developed based on its nature of bonding. Because without the bonding no compound can be designed. Even in security, the entire security department which includes the different ranks of officers must create a bond that can be achieved through team efforts only, to make all the security measures foolproof.  

Every security person in the security department is assigned different roles and duties to perform. Their way of delivering the tasks they are assigned and being disciplined while performing their duties can create strong bonds in the teams like in the chemical compounds which are proving to be the miracle workers in the scientific world.

The Crucial role of Team Effort in Security 

Most of the corporate offices that are found today are generally in high rises. Tall buildings with many levels and floors and each floor plan are different from one another in many cases. And this type of construction will attract many employees to come work under those offices in the building.

To provide security and safety for a property floor by floor and all the people in the building on each floor cannot be possible with one individual from the security department. The entire security department is needed and must be on the premises to make the task possible. The security guards guarding the entrance, the guards screening all the entrants, the security surveillance team monitoring all the corners, and the security managers and other superiors in rank who need to assign duties and manage the activities of all the security personnel. Each and every one of them is needed in the perimeter in a proximity range to ensure safety and security.

The more the bonding between all the security personnel in the security department will give the best effective outcome that is required for the firm.

The team spirit among the security personnel?

Conducting mock drills and other activities can strengthen the team spirit in the team and boost their chances of achieving many aspects such as work ethics and healthy relationship among the security personnel in the departments.

Building team spirit in the team by including all the team players can be a key ingredient in allowing the team players to gain their full potential and perform their work like a family.

Although many have heard that the team spirit in a team on many occasions can bring out the best performances in many individuals to work as a team, most of the teams ignore this fact. We all know how costly it can be even if one team member among the team fails to become a team player and that doesn’t end well for any team.

By now you must have understood at least a little about the significance of the team effort and a team for everything in our lives. In every step of our lives, it is said that we alone can transform our lives. Well, those people must either have never been in the company of others or they hated the idea of the teams. Because in today’s world most things in our lives need a team and the team effort for that matter. The corporate world and the multi-national companies even look to hire employees who can be good team players and maintain healthy relationships with others.

The decades of monarchism and authorization have been well buried in the foundations of the corporate and the challenging world in which we are born now.

This world expects us to be damn good team players and put in our efforts along with the team to make anything a success. In a similar manner, the team efforts are a well required and essential key in maintaining safety and security in any given perimeter.

If you still don’t believe me here is an easy example for the fans who love the idea about the marvel universe to simplify what I’m saying. Thanos was unbeaten by the Guardians of Galaxy on the planet knowhere, he was again successful on the Titan planet facing Tony and his team, and the same home run was continued on the earth too because the complete saviors of the universe were divided at that time. But we all know what happened in the Endgame when he faced the entire saviors of the human race and their respective teams. Thanos was blown to ashes.

The threats in our lives too can be defined in some sort of similar way, with all the collective efforts like a team effort by the security department for the firms they are hired can be very efficient and successful only when they allow the team efforts in the security department while performing their individual's roles and duties.

As a rule, a business will give more weight to the aftereffects of formal evaluations if the association is recruiting somebody to effectively lead change over the whole undertaking, instead of a guardian administrator who will principally oversee the security office.

To some extent, this is because change specialist directors will be working in a dynamic, and some of the time, turbulent conditions and appraisals can help measure if candidates can think and react quickly and address startling difficulties. Businesses would prefer not to recruit somebody who has finished out at their present level and who doesn’t have the inspiration to exceed expectations in an all the more requesting job. Nor do they need somebody who can’t deal with pressure and acknowledge input or who doesn’t work together well with others.
A significant explanation that candidates for senior jobs face more difficulties is because human asset pioneers realize that around 80 percent of employing botches are because of “off base” interviews—meets that neglected to successfully survey if the applicant would be a solid match for the position. What’s more, preparing and research firm Leadership IQ found that 46 percent of every single recently recruited employee falls flat inside a year and a half.

Thus, human asset experts have gone to evaluations to give increasingly essential information focuses. Not scoring admirably on these evaluations, as opposed to the competitor’s expert achievements, will impart a blended sign that candidates need to keep away from. In any case, high appraisal scores, supplemented by a noteworthy list of references and substantial meetings, will offer further affirmation that the candidate is a suitable individual for the activity.

Obstacles in the New Hiring

To distinguish the correct contender for recruit, numerous organizations have extended the recently referenced clear four-phase framework into a more drawn out and increasingly tiring procedure. This continued employing process changes relying upon the association and job. Yet, on the off chance that a candidate gets ready for the direst outcome imaginable, a procedure with fewer stages may be more straightforward.

This new equation begins with the customary, expertly arranged for interviews. In any case, later in the process lies a possibly deadly snare, which will bring an ill-equipped candidate’s excursion to an unexpected stop with no additional opportunity. The trap comprises a battery of evaluation tests that the competitor must perform well on to continue.

In any case, the underlying meeting phases of many recruiting forms regularly incorporate a screening meeting with a watchman from HR. This is usually trailed by interviews with the recruiting director and the up-and-comer’s likely companions. Numerous organizations utilize formal meeting conventions with specific inquiries that can be scored, albeit some despite everything, utilize conversational meetings and emotional evaluating.

The center phases of the employing pro­cess regularly incorporate meetings with senior pioneers, for example, the overall advice and other key administrators. After this center stage, yet before the last step, the up-and-comer is, at times, welcome to take a variety of online appraisals and examine the outcomes with an analyst.

This is a fundamental advance. For the candidate, the uplifting news here is that just making it to this stage shows robust enthusiasm, since the organization is eager to pay for outsider appraisals. The terrible news is that inability to perform regularly to better than expected on the assessments will end the procedure out and out.

One important disclaimer: candidates should realize that while enduring the appraisal stage, as a rule, implies they have cleared every single significant obstacle, this won’t hold on the off chance that they have lied on their list of qualifications or about their achievements. Numerous organizations have a last procedure stage, and finding false portrayals in it can cause issues. This previous stage regularly incorporates giving proficient references, including ones from managers, peers, and direct reports, just as audits of your activity history, criminal record, and credit report.

Another ongoing change here is that numerous organizations no longer solicitation general expert references from individuals who can verify that the candidate is an extraordinary individual, however, who can’t give explicit models that affirm achievements expressed on the list of qualifications, nor explicitly confirm concerning why the candidate would do well in the forthcoming activity.
On the off chance that it seems to be conceivable that the list of references and meeting answers could fold under investigation during focused meetings with references, the candidate should set aside the effort to guarantee precision before applying. Normal issue territories here incorporate distorted or misrepresented quantities of direct reports, excessive numbers in financial plans oversaw, or assuming immediate acknowledgment for an achievement that ought to be simple for a reference to affirm. However, the text can’t. Here, the overall guideline is to ensure that all embellishments are maintained a strategic distance from.

Another likely region of concern is a competitor’s online nearness. Web-based social networking and LinkedIn profiles ought to line up with the applicant’s list of references to limit the chance of mistaken assumptions. Probably the snappiest approach to get ghosted is the point at which an HR proficient finds a distortion inside the candidate’s online life nearness.

In aggregate, the times of necessarily accepting a candidate’s list of references and settling on a recruiting choice dependent on a solid meeting and instinct are finished. In any case, merely knowing the new scene and giving oneself a chance to get ready is probably going to provide the candidate with a strategically favorable position.

Appraisal Specifics: What to Expect

Character appraisals don’t assess understanding, instruction, specific information, or achievements. What they do quantify are character qualities that impact how an applicant thinks, feels, and acts. They are additionally intended to evaluate intellectual aptitudes and capacities that affect learning, critical thinking, and dynamic. These appraisals are a piece of the business’ procedure of distinguishing the correct competitor and staying away from a poor recruiting choice.

Organizations regularly utilize more than one overview to evaluate various parts of the competitor’s character and intellectual capacities. Probably the test addresses will cover; however, this permits the analyzer to take a gander at patterns across studies, which can give an increasingly precise image of the competitor. Generally speaking, these tests are scored dependent on the quantity of excellent and wrong answers, and the overall outcomes are contrasted and a huge up-and-comer regular gathering.
