Manpower Solutions & Security Staff
The delivery from some contract guarding companies to your business is often only at a reasonable level, this can be about half of your expectation for the cost comparison. There should be no allowances, there should be no exceptions, and there should be no half measures.
MAXIMUM BENEFIT
A correctly managed service can deliver more than any electronic security measure put in its place. Cogent seeks to evaluate and administer the management of any contract guarding service to achieve as close to 100% delivery as possible and to uphold what was promised in the service level agreement by the contract company.
We can help you to realise the true potential of correctly trained and managed security officers. Cogent offers a full audit process of your guarding service to ensure the package is designed for you and not for the convenience of the supply company.
Security Officers still play a vital role in the operational effectiveness of most business sectors. Contract or in-house security officer can be an invaluable tool in your security jigsaw.
LEGAL COMPLIANCE
SIA licensing of security officers and their organizations has been a legal requirement for several years now, but there are still officers and companies out there deploying un-licensed and un-trained staff to client’s sites. This is firstly ILLEGAL, but secondly it totally goes against the reason for having them, as the legality of the service is not valid, neither will any of the insurance and quality assurances you will have been told about.
A simple check on the SIA website (www.the-sia.org.uk) can help identified registered companies, and an officer must carry their SIA license at all times, visibly displayed when at work, so if you can’t see it ask for it.
If you are concerned that you may not have the service you asked for, and concerned about the impact of dismissing the contractor, then talk to us first, we have independent relationships with a number of credible and legal contract guarding companies that could litterally step into their shoes.
Speak to Cogent today and explore ways in which professional security officers can complement your business structure.
