PART A

THE ROLE AND RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE SECURITY GUARD

It is important to remember:

As a security guard, you are NOT a peace officer!!!

How are security guards DIFFERENT from peace officers?

Security guards do not have:

�� The same job duties as peace officers;

�� The same training; or

�� The same powers as peace officers, according to the law.

What happens when a security guard PRETENDS to be a peace officer?

Any security guard who pretends or even implies (lets others think) that he is a peace

officer is committing a crime. A person who is found guilty of impersonating a peace

officer could be punished by a fine or county jail sentence and his registration may be

denied or revoked.

What are a security guard’s ROLES AND RESPONSIBILITIES?

A security guard’s role is to PROTECT people and property of his employer or

contracted clients.

A security guard’s responsibility BEFORE an incident/offense has occurred is

PREVENTION.

A security guard’s responsibility DURING or AFTER an incident/offense has occurred is

to OBSERVE and REPORT.
