Employer Action Hub for a Safer Bay Area

Employers are uniquely positioned to amplify critical safety messaging, connect employees to reporting tools, and serve as a first line of awareness for emerging threats.

With hundreds of thousands of international visitors expected in the Bay Area for the 2026 FIFA World Cup, federal and local law enforcement are asking employers to help keep the region safe. Here is how your organization can get involved.
