Training for cargo security – what you need to know

Cargo security is an important part of shipping operations since some aspects are frequently overlooked during transit. There are so many factors that could influence the cargo transportation process, and no one can be fully aware of them all.

Cargo theft has existed for millennia, from thieves assaulting merchants on trading highways to pirates taking ships at sea to bandits on horseback stealing stagecoaches. Trucks have mostly supplanted horse-drawn carriages, and bandits have evolved into well-organized multinational criminal empires.

There are so many precautions that need to be adopted to ensure the safety of the cargo. One essential precaution is training specifically for cargo security. It is not just about knowing what to do if there is a hijacker or someone who tries to break into your cargo; it is also about training employees on what they should do in case they see suspicious activity on their route, especially when malicious intention is unknown.

Companies should be aware of two types of cargo theft: when cargo is stolen from unattended lots and when identity theft is involved. Criminals frequently pose as genuine truck drivers and steal freight straight from shippers.

​

Cargo theft – a real problem

Cargo theft is a global issue affecting both consumers and companies. Cargo theft impacts every sector, every state, and means of transportation; therefore, businesses must take adequate precautions to avert theft. Firms take various steps to enhance their chances of preventing cargo theft. Deterring theft can be accomplished by using high-tech equipment to locate stolen cars or basic, low-tech padlocks on trailer doors.

In our worldwide, ever-expanding economy, supply chains are frequently extended across nations, regions, and continents. Larger organizations’ supply bases are now more global, outsourced, and linked than ever before. Economic volatility, shifting commodity prices, heightened financial crises, global demand for black market commodities, and increasing cargo theft are all factors playing a role in the industry.

Cargo theft is still a significant problem worldwide, particularly in the United Kingdom, where the numbers are at an all-time high at around £250 million per year.

High-value cargo loads, such as electronics, were initially the target of most cargo thefts. Once adequate security measures were implemented, lower-value cargo then became a target. 

Here are a few tips that will help to improve your business security:

  • Consider integrating technology to assist you in achieving supply chain transparency.
    -Insider knowledge is involved in a substantial proportion of cargo theft, and carefully screening potential workers might assist in enhancing cargo security.
  • Select transportation partners and intermediates with care since they will have custody and control of your products after leaving your facilities until they arrive at their destination.
  • Conduct regular security audits and ensure that the company’s security procedures are followed. Instead of reacting to crooks, anticipate their movements.
  • Because cargo thefts may be planned and opportunistic, consider in-transit security before deciding on a shipment.
