  • How to get a security job? I am looking for a career in law enforcement. I want to develop "people" skills, conflict resolution skills, and other things. I am a student right now, is looking to do this as a weekend job. I have heard that of security companies who would hire for part-time work and offer courses. Upon completion of the course, they will help in getting security guard jobs, and following they would pass our details to other security companies. Later in life, I would have a better chance of getting hired as a police officer or other law enforcement officers, as I would have developed experience in things such as interacting with the public and dealing with conflict. So having said that, here is my question. Does this work? Will this open a window of opportunity in law enforcement for real? I am 18 years old, how long will it take assuming I would work as a guard from now on?

  • Warrants Hi im new in the security industry and am working as security for an accommodation building. 3 men turned up today with a warrant to turn the power off because the owner owed the power company 40 grand. They said they could enter by force if i didnt let them in, so i did. But should have refused entry? Would I have gotten into trouble for refusing entry since they had the warrant to enter?

      Hi,
      You would not be able to stop them if they had a warrant to turn the power off, if you did, most likely they would call police and gain access anyway (if the warranty was genuine). However, you should have notified the owner and your employer straight away, asks those people from Power Company to wait for the owner and perhaps, the owner would have dealt with them.

      On the other hand, if those people from Power Company were rude to you and/or did not want to wait, you are a security guard and absolutely entitled to verify each and every single individual trying to gain access into your premises. I would still notify the owner and the employer (security company) and tell them (power company people) that the validity of the warranty and their identities needed to be verified.

      In this day and age, people forge money, how easy is to forge a piece of paper. Especially, if you had no information about the debt or power company’s arrival. All security guards are entitled to identify everyone and verify the details, if they possess no information.

      However, if you knew about their visit, then you did right, but the owner and your employer should have been notified anyway.

      If you would like to discuss it further or have other questions, please see the details below to get in touch with us.

  • poaching a security guard My friend is a security guard employed by a security company in Slough
    He has worked for them for about 5 years and has been working in the same placement
    for about 2 years. He was told by a co-worker within the placements organisation that the position he is fulfilling has been advertised and the co-workers recommended he apply.
    If he were to get the job would the security company be entitled to any form of payment for effectively poaching of a member of their staff?
    If so any idea how much?
    He is reluctant to tell the security company he is looking for another job.
    thanks

    • Philip:
      I would definitely apply if he's interested in the job. you don't have to be actively looking to find out about job openings. People talk and share information, and more so when with a click of the mouse or a simple share you can send information wherever you like...
    • David@SWBMACADEMY:
      Hi,
      Usually, security company contracts with both clients and employees include compensation clause, it outlines that neither employees have right to approach their (security company) clients directly for some defined period of time (3 years, 5 years, etc.) during or after terminating the employment nor their (security company) clients can employ security company staff directly for some defined period of time (3 years, 5 years, etc.).
      Should this contract be broken then whoever breaks the contract will be asked to pay compensation. For instance: if a contract includes above mentioned 3 year rule than whoever breaks it could be liable of paying whatever the profit security company should have received during those 3 years.

      You need to check the contract.
