The benefits of hiring a security guard:
Retail loss
Your retail store has been targeted for theft and as such has begun to show profit losses. This is something that security guards can help you combat. You won't have to constantly re-order your company supply.
Accountability
Having one of our highly trained security guard on the premises will keep employees accountable and more likely to stay on task.
Safety
All security guards are first aid trained, so should something happen to one of your employees or a customer, the guard will administer aid until an ambulance arrives.
Liability
If you are in business long enough you are sure to run into some disgruntled customers. With a security professional making customized security daily reports, you have a witness able to verify or refute their claims.
Deter Crime
Crime is a very serious issue, especially for small businesses. Hiring a security guard for your company will make criminals think twice before attempting a thing.
Professional
Hiring security guard services not only helps you with safety and liability but it also makes your business seem more professional to potential customers and improve customer service.
Do you need to hire a security guard for your business?
Here’s a checklist to find out if you do.
Do you serve alcohol? All businesses that do should hire a security professional services to handle any potential inebriated customers in a safe manner.
Your business is open at night. The majority of crimes occur at night.
If your business is located in a high crime area we highly recommend hiring a security firm.
Your business suffers from trespassers, vandalism, or theft.
If your business falls under any of these categories then you should definitely hire security guard services.
Companies that need a security guard provider:
Banking and financial services
This is one of the industries that has the highest need for security companies, not only to protect people's money but also to protect customers and staff. As well, security guards can point customers to the correct area of the bank, and maintain order.
Retail and wholesale
Security guards are a necessary part of any retail business. Did you know every year Canadian businesses lose 1.4 billion dollars from employee theft alone. Providing your business with security solutions will help combat profit losses.
Medical facilities
Security guards are important to medical facilities, such as hospitals and psychiatric wards, to handle patients with violent tendencies and to ensure hospital staff are able to safely do their job. As well as direct patients to the E.R or other floors.
Hotel and hospitality
The hospitality industry runs off of customer satisfaction, and if a customer’s valuables were stolen, it would negatively reflect on your business. Hiring security services can help prevent negative experiences like this.
Construction
Construction projects have many high cost equipment on the premises. Security guards can ensure day and night that nothing happens to it. As well, these sites are prone to trespassing, vandalism and tampering. With security guard services you reduce the chance of this happening.
To conclude, every business has something to protect. Whether its employees, assets or resources, hiring security guards can help you achieve this goal.
