Tips on How to Hire Good Security Guards

Tips on How to Hire Good Security Guards 
 
 
If you need security guards to protect your business, you must take note of the tips below to ensure that you get high quality service you are willing to pay for.
 
 1. Find out and test their verbal communication skills.
 
Most clients want to hire security guards who are able to speak and understand English well. This is important for customers to undertand their instructions and directions clearly. High verbal communication skills are also necessary in resolving conflicts. Make sure you have a comprehensive written examination which includes tests based on possible situation they would most probably encounter at work. This is important to find out the level of their English verbal communication skills. 
 
2. Test their observation skills.   

The main duty of security guards is to detect possible problems (before they arise, as much as possible). Most training courses provided to security guards do not include observation skills which is unfortunate because being keen is very vital in securing people and properties. Again, have a holistic written exam that tests their observation skills, how well they make use of their senses. Sometimes it's worthwile to make them undergo sight and hearing tests to make sure they are fit for the job. You wouldn't want to hire guards with a poor eyesight or hearing (which you wouldn't be able to find out in a one-on-one job interview.) 
 
3. Find out their ability to deter criminal behaviour.    
 
Every secutiry hire agency and its contracted client says that the most vital factor for hiring security guards is their capability to deter crime with reasonable force. Make sure the ones you intend to employ have the proper and up-to-date trainings.

Things to Check in a Security Hire Agency 

Finding the right security hire agency for your business can be quite challenging because it’s the safety of your clients, employees, and your business as a whole we’re talking about here. The wrong security guard agency might cause you a lot. So, to help you find the right company for you, here are some tips.

 1. Look for a proven track record.

 In terms of hiring a security guard agency, you would want to find one with a lot of relevant experiences and proven track record. Find an agency that has the experience and expertize providing the services you need. It is definitely not worth the risk hiring an under qualified and inexperienced security hire agency simply because they offer the lowest rate. Before you look at the fee, check the track record first.

2. Check references. 

 This is extremely vital. When they say they are experienced and reliable, does not automatically mean it's absolutely true. A reputable security guard company would always have a list of references. Call those people on the list and confirm the company's reliability and competency. Ask these questions to have a better idea about the agency's reputation.

  • How would you rate the company's professionalism?
  • How would you rate the company's competency?
  • What made you hire the company? 
  • What can you say about their security guards and security personnel? Do they look and act professional? Were they well trained?
  • Was there anything that surprised you about their services?

2. Check credentials. 

Check to confirm their credentials with the bureau of labour and bureau of business. Look for any alarming issures like: 

  •  poor business bureau ratings
  • complaints filed against the company
  • security guards complaing about not being paid
