Threats to People

Contact Head of Corporate Security if you believe that your programme activity or personal profile may give rise to security threats to yourself or to the BBC.

If you have received actual threats, contact Head of Corporate Security as soon as possible and inform the BBC Investigation Service and the police if the threat is of an immediate nature.

At his discretion, Head of Corporate Security may offer a security risk assessment to the production or individual. Measures recommended as a result of a security risk assessment will be designed to mitigate and not to eliminate any perceived threat.

Please note that recommended security features that would normally be prudent for a dwelling or workplace at that location, such as secure doors or windows, must be installed or upgraded at the individual's cost.

The cost of recommended security features beyond this normal provision, such as alarms or panic buttons, will be met by the BBC only in exceptional circumstances and will be subject to local business unit financial approval procedures. Head of Corporate Security must give approval prior to the installation of recommended security features to ensure they are of suitable specification and quality.

Where the BBC agrees to meet the cost of any ongoing security measures, such requirement will be reassessed as appropriate.
