Description

Hotels occasionally encounter situations involving drugs or drug paraphernalia, leaving staff unsure of the safest and most appropriate next steps. Sargent Mark Korobanik from the Edmonton Police Service will provide practical guidance for hotel teams on how to recognize common drug-related items, assess potential risks, and understand when an issue can be safely managed internally versus when police involvement is required. This session will cover what to do if drugs or paraphernalia are suspected or discovered, how to protect staff and guests, and why proper response and reporting are critical for workplace safety.
