What to know about Security guard companies
Private security is one of the few services in this category that Britain genuinely licenses. The Security Industry Authority licenses individual operatives, and section 3 of the Private Security Industry Act 2001 makes it an offence for a person to engage in any licensable conduct except under and in accordance with a licence. That is a criminal offence, not a regulatory technicality, and it attaches to the individual doing the work as well as to the managers and directors above them.
