Northern Force Security Working with Security Guard Company | Page 3

 Pay attention to their supervision system
 Many people think they just need an individual
trained to look after their property or special event,
but the truth is that they should look for a
contractor with systems available for remotely
supervising the guards. You need to ask about how
your selected security guard company will carry out
supervision. Moreover, you should also check how
they are going to perform supervision, as some
would rely on guard check-ins while others would
use field supervisors to ensure that your security
guard is always in control of things. Just be sure to
inquire about it to have a better idea of what to
expect.
 Ask about the Training Offered to the
Guards
 It is extremely important to know how your guards
are trained; after all, they will be in charge of
security and help keep your premises safe. You have
to understand that under-trained guards are never
going to deliver maximum satisfaction. You should
be asking about the orientation your security guard
company provides. Sometimes, you can have a
security guard company train your own guards. In
this case, consider if they are going to provide
training at your property or not. You should also ask
about the duration of training. Sitting through an
orientation is usually the best way to get an idea
about how your guards are trained.
