Automation Risk

AI exposure (AIOE)i60%

This role contains a mix of routine tasks (e.g., access control, parking management) that are increasingly automatable, and human-centric tasks (e.g., emergency response, visible deterrence) that require physical presence and judgment. Many tasks can be augmented by AI tools, especially in monitoring and reporting, but full automation is limited by the need for real-world interaction and trust-building.

Task analysis

  • Patrol event premises to monitor for suspicious activity and ensure safety of attendees.
  • Control access at entry points, checking tickets or credentials and managing crowd flow.
  • Respond to emergency situations, including medical incidents or evacuations.
