5 REASONS YOUR BUSINESS NEEDS A SECURITY OFFICER
Ensuring diversity in the virtual workplace

1. YOU NOTICE GROWING RETAIL THEFT
If you are habitually a victim of theft by either
employees or customers, you need to have a
security officer at your business. Security
officers have the expertise to incorporate
efficient measures to end retail theft.

2. YOU HAVE MANY VISITORS
If your business is open to visitors, a security
officer can check who accesses your business and
show the guests around. This service is
especially useful if you constantly have guests
visiting to see your work. A security officer
keeps the guests away from restricted areas,
which protects your business from property or
intellectual theft.

3. YOU SERVE ALCOHOL
Volatile situations are common in places where
customers and clients take alcohol while on-site,
so you must be prepared to handle altercations
occasionally. An on- site professional security
officer will help diffuse any tense situation
that arises. The visible presence of the officers
is often enough to deter disorderly behavior.
However, the officers also have the requisite
skills to de-escalate any fights or conflicts.

4. YOU HAVE NO SAFETY PROFESSIONALS ON-SITE
Employees should have some level of skills in
health, safety, and fire emergencies to promptly
respond to any incidences in the retail store.
Unfortunately, not many employees have these
skills. Fortunately, trained security officers
can handle health and fire emergencies, which
relieves the burden from employees.

5. YOU HAVE EMPLOYEES WORKING LATE

• Early mornings and late nights can be the most
  vulnerable times of a business. To protect
  employees that work very early in the morning and
  those that work late into the night, you need a
  security officer to be around from start to
  finish.
• The officers also ensure the employees leave
  safely, especially if the business location is in
  a high crime area.
