Preventing loss and waste

• Theft and other criminal activity by staff, visitors etc. can be prevented or reduced by searching staff, visitors and vehicles in accordance with assignment instructions.
• Breach of confidentiality whether intentional or not can have serious implications both to the organisation and the security officer. Confidential information should never be discussed with anyone including family and friends. The disclosure of confidential information could lead to criminal proceedings.
• Waste through the unnecessary use of electrical equipment (lights, heaters etc) and the unauthorised use of telephone systems or computers. Security officers have a responsibility for waste management and measures to reduce wastage, which are required by environmental policies, may include activities such as switching of un-required electrical equipment, i.e. lighting, computers and machinery, if authorised to do so.

• Robbery.

• Criminal damage including graffiti.

• Assault.
• Breach of peace.
• Public order offences.
Requirements

• Ensuring security equipment is working properly e.g. security lighting.
