Security services
Recruitment, payroll and compliance for security companies with guards on rotating shifts across many client sites.
Common HR challenges in this sector
Sound familiar?
- Screening and verifying guards before deployment
- Rotating day and night shifts, and long hours that must be paid correctly
- Minimum wage rules for security guards and uniform or equipment deductions
- Clients asking for statutory payment proof before renewing a contract
- Turnover, absenteeism and last-minute shift cover
