Najczęściej zadawane pytania
Do safety rules apply to security guards on an industrial site?
Yes. You are a worker on the site, so you follow its PPE, walkway and lockout rules, and you have the same rights to know about hazards and to refuse unsafe work.
Can a guard search employees' bags or vehicles?
Only as the site's written policy allows and with the person's consent. If a person refuses, record it and report it as the policy says. Never use force to search.
What should I do if a trailer seal is broken or does not match?
Do not open or accept the trailer. Record the seal number, the trailer and driver details and the time, and report it to your supervisor or shipping and receiving.
Should I go in when a building alarm goes off at night?
Not alone. Watch from a safe place, call police and the keyholder as your post orders say, and wait for them before anyone goes inside.
