this is basically a division of the group of Woolworths comprising of about 22000 employees
across Asia as well as Australia. BIGW is basically a social innovation which will be

donors who makes their individual contribution by offering proper service as well as goods to
all the various consumers of BIGW (Pollard et al. 2014). The main aim of the study is to
provide a proper security policy for all those who is actually owning, managing as well as
working in BIGW. The security policy will be helping a lot in the reduction of various risks
of the attacks of terrorist and will even be highly limiting the huge damage which any attack
may be causing. There is a high possibility that the BIGW can be greatly involved in any kind
of terrorist incidents. Terrorism may be coming in a number of different kinds of forms
(Khattab et al. 2017). There may be a number of threats in the payment system of the
supermarket as well. All sorts of risks as well as vulnerabilities must be well identified and
hence there is a need for the security policy so that all of these threats can be minimized as
well as mitigated. There must be enough assessments of risks as well as measures for the
proper management of risks and there must be a proper co-operating safety arrangements
made in between all the various stakeholders of the BIGW (Peyton, Moseley and Battersby
2015). There must be proper training of all the staffs who have been greatly responsible for
maintaining security.
