The NYC Department of Health is quietly planning to hire an outside consultant to devise guidelines to protect agency honchos it claims have been bombarded by threats since the pandemic — which critics say the agency woefully mishandled. The Health Department began soliciting proposals last month from vendors interested in developing agency protocols to prevent online and in-person “safety risks and “proactively protect” its employees. Up to 75 staffers, including “leadership,” researchers and data analysts — whose “online presence leaves them vulnerable to harassment, doxxing, and reputational attacks” — will also receive “personal safety training” on how to “protect themselves” while attending public meetings and performing other field duties, the application says.
