Security Measures
The hotel industry has experienced the need to enhance security of guests in the recent past given the increased security threats/attacks in the modern business environment. The increased focus on enhancing security in the hotel industry has represented a major shift from the serious neglect of various security responsibilities that characterized this industry in the past. According to Fischer, Halibozek & Walters (2013), hotel managers, particularly security managers, are faced with the need to enhance their security measures because of the numerous safety concerns in this sector such as potential terrorist attacks. In light of modern security concerns, there is need to adopt a comprehensive approach towards improving hotel security. This paper provides a plan for improving hotel security during ground breaking, grand opening, and across daily operations. The discussion is based on plans to construct the newly approved John Jay Hotel on 59th Street in New York City.
Security Plan for Construction of John Jay Hotel
The planned development of John Jay Hotel on 59th Street in New York City is an exciting business venture that could become profitable given the ideal location of the hotel. Despite being an exciting business venture, the approved plan for construction of John Jay Hotel generates some security issues/concerns that must be addressed using a comprehensive security plan. Since the hotel is yet to be constructed, the comprehensive security plan should be a blueprint for the hotel's security from its construction to its daily operations. In addition, the security plan will be based on the common security risks to businesses in the hospitality industry in 59th Street in New York City. In this regard, this security plan will focus on three major phases i.e. ground breaking, grand opening, and daily operations of John Jay Hotel. Additionally, the security plan is designed to enhance the safety and security of the hotel's employees and guests through lessening security risks or threats. The security measures for the various stages of the development and operations of this hotel will be as follows . . .
Ground Breaking
In most cases, security measures are usually relaxed during the ground breaking stage of a new business or property. However, the ground breaking stage should act as the foundational phase for the development and implementation of security measures in order to prevent future issues. Security measures during the ground breaking phase will commence with an asset assessment and risk analysis. Under asset assessment, the assets to be protected will be identified while the risk analysis will entail identifying probable security risks that could hinder the effective operations and
Secondly, during the ground breaking phase, the credentials of individuals working on the site will be checked to ensure their suitability in constructing the hotel. These checks will be conducted regardless of the position of the individual such as project manager, chief contractor, and cement layer. Additionally, the hotel's management will be required to have periodic badges and company references when they visit the construction site. These badges and references will be utilized as measures to control access to the construction site and ensure that those who visit the site are authorized personnel. This will be a crucial security measure towards preventing unauthorized access to the construction site. Moreover, the various constructors will be required to have identification badges that would help control access to the site and access by any unauthorized personnel who could be a security risk. These badges will be utilized to control and supervise entry to the construction site (Fischer, Halibozek & Walters, 2013).
Grand Opening
Apart from ensuring security during the ground breaking phase, the other important phase towards enhance the safety of the hotel is the grand opening stage. This phase of construction requires adequate security because of the various kinds of guests that will attend the event. Moreover, the need to ensure security during the grand opening phase is also attributable to the fact that without adequate security, criminals are likely to access the hotel and cause security threats in the future. Therefore, grand opening security is essential towards protecting the safety of guests who attend the opening ceremony and preventing unauthorized individuals/criminals from accessing the facility.
One of the security measures that will be utilized during grand opening is access control through which only authorized personnel will…

Security management is "described in some quarters as a function of risk management," (Bulletin 2, Part 2). Although there is some crossover with public sector security functions, such as policing, security management is generally considered a private sector domain. "Whilst private security has a predominantly commercial basis, it should not be forgotten that it does interact with the public to a considerable degree," (Bulletin 2, Part 2). Security management is
