Preventing crime

Security officers provide a physical and visual deterrent against crime. The presence of even one officer will dramatically reduce the rate of crime and prevent the likelihood of a security incident. If officers do need to respond to an incident, they can use their training to intervene and stop the situation from escalating.  

Upgrading security

Security officers act as an extra pair of eyes and ears. Their presence is purposeful and distinct in providing immediate action in a multitude of scenarios, from de-escalating a situation to deterring hostility.

Providing a quick response time

The reaction of on-site security is immediate; every second counts when it comes to incident repose.

Handling security incidents in an efficient manner

Officers can use their judgement to protect assets and weigh up how best to respond to incidents. Risk changes quickly, so handling incidents in an efficient manner is of the utmost importance. Conflict management thereafter is critical to ensuring the incident does not get out of hand.

Preventing vehicle theft

On-site security officers patrol your car park at regular, but random intervals.

Secure environment

Officers play an important role in controlling violations and maintaining discipline in the workplace.

First aid

Officers are first aid trained. In an emergency they can perform CPR and operate an automated defibrillator.
