matter, FAIL, it is generally because of
two reasons. “Lack of leadership and
lack of training”. RCG
“ Failure is certain, when
training is lacking”.

Private Security-
A vital and growing industry

First and Last Impressions:
As a security officer, it’s important
to dress neatly, confidently, and
have an overall professional
appearance because you not only
represent yourself and your
company, but also the client.
Often, security personnel are the
first and last people customers,
visitors and employees see.

Security Officer VS. Police Officer:
10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 10
The primary difference between
a security officer and a police
officer are as follows:
A police officer is an “agent of
the state’ and generally acts
under the powers of the state and
or local government to enforce
laws, maintain order, and provide
911 response. They have
warrantless vast arrest powers.
10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 11
Security Officer VS. Police Officer:
A security officer is an “agent of the
property owner” and acts under the
said authority of property mgt. The
security officer has, generally, no
formal police or arrest powers, but is
tasked with protection of property and
life in the installation they are
assigned. The primary duty of a
security officer is to provide Fire Life
Safety, deterrence, and 911 notification
in situations that clearly call for it.
10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 12
Security Officer VS. Police Officer:
• A security officer (or formerly
called security guard) is a person
who is paid to protect property,
assets, or people. Security
officers are usually privately and
formally employed personnel.
Often, security officers are
uniformed and act to protect
property and people.
10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 13
Security Officer VS. Police Officer:
• They do this by maintaining a high
visibility presence to deter illegal and
inappropriate actions, either
observing directly through patrols,
by watching alarm systems or video
cameras for signs of crime, fire or
disorder; then taking action and
reporting any incidents to their
superiors, client, and emergency
services as appropriate.
10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 14
Security Officer VS. Police Officer:
• Security personnel are not police
officers as we have stated earlier,
unless they are security police, but
are often identified as such due to
similar uniforms and behaviors,
especially on private property.
Security personnel in the U.S. derive
their powers from state laws, which
allow them a contractual
arrangement with clients that give
them Agent of the Owner powers.
10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 15
Security Officer VS. Police Officer:
•This includes a nearly
unlimited power to question
people with the absence of
probable cause, requirements
that frequently dog public law
enforcement officers.

Security Officer VS. Police Officer:
• Since at least the Middle Ages in
Europe, the term watchman was more
commonly applied to this function.
This term was carried over to North
America where it was interchangeable
with night-watchman until both terms
were replaced with the modern
security-based titles. Security officers
are sometimes regarded as fulfilling a
private policing function.
10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 17
Security Officer VS. Police Officer:
• Many security firms and proprietary
security departments practice the
"detect, deter, observe and report"
methodology. Security officers are
not required to make arrests, but
have the authority to make a citizen's
arrest, or otherwise act as an agent of
law enforcement at the request of a
police officer, sheriff, federal
authorities, and others.
10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 18
Security Officer VS. Police Officer:
• If a private security officer or even
special police officer acts at the
behest of a police officer in
detaining or arresting an individual,
that security officer is then acting
under “The color of law” and must
abide by all legal means necessary
and not over step his/her authority.
If a security officer abuses that
authority, they will be liable.
10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 19
Security Officer VS. Police Officer:
What is “Color of Law?
Color of law refers to an appearance
of legal power to act but which may
operate in violation of law. For
example, though a police officer acts
with the "color of law" authority to
arrest someone, if such an arrest is
made without probable cause the
arrest may actually be in violation of
law and in violation of their rights.
10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 20
Security Officer VS. Police Officer:
What is “Color of Law?
In other words, just because
something is done with the "color of
law", that does not mean that the
action was lawful. When police or
private security forces act outside
their lawful authority and violate the
civil rights of a citizen, the FBI is
tasked with investigating such
instances and prosecuting.
10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 21
Primary Duty?
A private security officer's primary duty is
the prevention and deterrence of crime and
Fire Life Safety. Security personnel enforce
company rules and can act to protect lives
and property. In fact, they frequently have a
contractual obligation to provide these
actions. Security officers are often trained
to perform arrest and control procedures
(including handcuffing and restraints),
operate emergency equipment, perform
first aid, CPR, take accurate notes, write
detailed reports, and perform other tasks
as required by the institution, contractee
and or client they are serving.
10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 22
Security Officer VS. Police Officer:
• One major economic justification for
security personnel is that insurance
companies (particularly fire insurance
carriers) will give substantial rate
discounts to sites which have a 24-
hour presence; for a high risk or high
value venue, the discount can often
exceed the money being spent on its
security program.
10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 23
Security Officer VS. Police Officer:
• This is because having security on
site increases the odds that any fire
will be noticed and reported to the
local fire department before a total
loss occurs. Also, the presence of
security personnel tends to diminish
"shrinkage theft”, employee
misconduct, safety rule violations,
property damage, or even internal
sabotage.

Security Officer VS. Police Officer:
Historically, private security and
law enforcement agencies have
not always maintained consistent
and efficient relationships. A 1971
study conducted by the Rand
Corporation described the typical
private security guard as an
aging white male, who was poorly
educated, un-trained, and paid.
10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 25
Security Officer VS. Police Officer:
However, by the mid 1980’s,
that stero-type had drastically
changed to an even mix of
different races and ages. By
the mid 2000’s, especially after
9-11, wages and training had
increased exponentially.
10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 26
Security Officer VS. Police Officer:
In 1976, the Private Security
Advisory Council, through the
U.S. Department of Justice,
identified two main factors
which contributed to poor
relationships between law
enforcement and private
security personnel:
10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 27
Security Officer VS. Police Officer:
1) Their inability to clarify role
definitions / responsibility
2) Their practice of stereotyping.
The Hallcrest Report has also
been highly credited for
examining relationships
between law enforcement and
private security.
10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 28
Security Officer VS. Police Officer:
The Hallcrest Report, published in
1985 by the National Institute of
Justice, discovered that various law
enforcement officials, together with
proprietary institutions and contract
security professionals, decided to
convey police related actions to private
security. Similarly, the Hallcrest Report
II (Private Security Trends) concluded
that private security is America's
primary protective resource in terms of
spending and employment.
10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 29
Security Officer VS. Police Officer:
“In terms of spending
and employment,
private security is
America's primary
protective resource”.
That is an amazing
condition~
10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 30
Security Officer VS. Police Officer:
Although the role of the Security
Officer and the traditional Police
Officer differ greatly, the private
security personnel deployed around
the nation act as a positive deterrent
to routine crime, protection of
property and potential terrorist
threats. Certain levels of sensitive
intel have also been shared between
public & private agencies.
10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 31
Security Officer VS. Police Officer:
Fact point:
Recent research also found that
private security currently employs
approximately 1.5 million people and
maintained annual expenditures of
$52 billion (2004 figures). On the
other hand, approximately 600,000
individuals are employed with
federal, state, and local law
enforcement and maintain a $30
billion expenditure service.
10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 32
Security Officer VS. Police Officer:
Last, the increasing growth
of private security and the
limited growth of law
enforcement is due to four
main factors, according to
the Hallcrest Report:
10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 33
Security Officer VS. Police Officer:
1. Increasing workplace crime
and violence
2. Increasing fear of crime
3. A decreasing rate of spending
for public protection
4. Increasing awareness and use
of private security effective
protective measures.
10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 34
Security Officer VS. Police Officer:
In addition, police typically held private
security officers to a lower standard
because of their limited powers,
whereas security directors & Managers
believed police were uninterested or
incapable of handling their crime;
especially computer, white-collar, and
in the extreme, terrorism offenses. The
trend of these relationships in recent
years however, has been toward
partnership and liaison.
10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 35
Security Officer VS. Police Officer:
For example, in the 1980's, only a handful of
private security and law enforcement liaison
programs existed, while today there are over
60 liaison programs in operation. In turn,
Operation Cooperation has been a recent
contributor to the encouragement of public-
private teamwork. Operation Cooperation,
funded by the U.S. Department of Justice
and supported by the American Society for
Industrial Security (ASIS), represents a
major national initiative to encourage
partnerships between law enforcement and
private security organizations.
10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 36
Security Officer VS. Police Officer:
Some examples of these partnerships:
Virginia Police and Private Security
Alliance (VAPPSA) , The Boston
Police FDIN crime network,
Dallas/North Texas Regional Law
Enforcement and Security Program,
and the Area Police/Private Security
Liaison (APPL). This partnership is
centered in New York City with the
NYPD as the primary agency and
partnership liaison.
10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 37
Liaisons and partnerships:
Although liaisons and partnerships vary
from program to program, they share
similar characteristics. The following
identifies common characteristics between
police/security liaison programs:
• 1) Networking:
• Social gatherings designed to discuss
common problems and aid each entity in
understanding others in the program.
• Lectures by security professionals at
police training events and vice versus.
• Directories of police and security contacts.
•
10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 38
Liaisons and partnerships:
2) Information Sharing
• Exchange of information on
crimes and criminal convictions
between law enforcement
agencies and the private security
industry.
• Exchange of business crime in
the same manner.
10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 39
Liaisons and partnerships:
3) Crime Prevention
• Joint participation in business
safety and security programs.
• Community policing.
• Addressing issues of local
concern as it relates to police
and security.
• Joint public-private support of
neighborhood watch programs.
10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 40
Liaisons and partnerships:
4) Training
• Establishing training sessions on
topics of interest and need
(specifically terrorism and crime trends)
• Exchange of training and
expertise where the other entity
lacks.
• Police training of security and
vice versus.
10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 41
Liaisons and partnerships:
5) Legislation
• Joint supporting of laws
and ordinances regarding
security officer standards
and licensing.
10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 42
Liaisons and partnerships:
6) Operations
• Investigations
• Incident planning and/or
safety committees.
• Joint sting operations and
special weapons and tactics
(SWAT) teams
10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 43
Liaisons and partnerships:
7) Research
• Review and distribution of
recent publications
regarding current issues
and technology within the
public-private sectors.
10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 44
Liaisons and partnerships:
Despite their differences, law
enforcement agencies and
private security organizations
have increasingly come together
to prevent and deter crime.
Formality may differ, but all
partnerships work to protect life
and property. Thus far, the
history of police and security and
their relations has improved
dramatically since 9/11.
10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 45
Liaisons and partnerships:
More open attitudes and
acceptance by the local
Police and increased
training and awareness by
private security personnel
have made the partnership
transformation a much
better entity.

Landmark Legal Precedents:
10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 48
Escobedo V. Illinois- 1964
10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 49
Escobedo V. Illinois- 1964
Escobedo v. Illinois, 378 U.S. 478
(1964), was a United States Supreme
Court case holding that criminal
suspects have a right to counsel during
police interrogations under the Sixth
Amendment. The case was decided a
year after the court held in Gideon v.
Wainwright, 372 U.S. 335 (1963) that
indigent criminal defendants had a right
to be provided counsel at trial.

Miranda VS. Arizona- 1966
10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 51
Miranda VS. Arizona- 1966
Miranda v. Arizona, 384 U.S. 436 (1966),
was a landmark decision of the United
States Supreme Court which passed 5–4.
The Court held that both inculpatory and
exculpatory statements made in response to
interrogation by a defendant in police
custody will be admissible at trial only if the
prosecution can show that the defendant
was informed of the right to consult with an
attorney before and during questioning and
of the right against
10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 52
Miranda VS. Arizona- 1966
self-incrimination prior to questioning
by police, and that the defendant not
only understood these rights, but
voluntarily waived them. This had a
significant impact on law enforcement
in the United States, by making what
became known as the Miranda rights
part of routine police procedure to
ensure that suspects were informed of
their rights.
10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 53
Foot notes: Inculpatory evidence
Inculpatory evidence is evidence that
shows, or tends to show, a person's
involvement in an act, or evidence that
can establish guilt. In criminal law, the
prosecution has a duty to provide all
evidence to the defense, whether it
favors the prosecution's case or the
defendant's case. Evidence that tends
to show a person's innocence is
considered exculpatory evidence.
10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 54
Foot notes: Exculpatory evidence
Exculpatory evidence is the evidence
favorable to the defendant in a criminal
trial, which clears or tends to clear the
defendant of guilt. It is the opposite of
inculpatory evidence, which tends to
prove guilt. In many countries such as
the United States, police or prosecutor
are required to disclose to the
defendant any exculpatory evidence
they possess before the defendant
makes a plea (guilty or not guilty).

Legal Authority & Detaining
10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 67
Detaining or holding a
person against their will…
10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 68
The legal aspects:
 Private security personnel generally
do not have legal arrest powers. In
fact, 90% of America’s private
security forces have no formal arrest
powers or detainment authority.
Certain security officers like some
Mall/ retail officers, licensed special
police officers, sporting events
security personnel, and government
contracted personnel do have limited
arrest & detainment authority.
10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 69
The legal aspects:
 Private security personnel who
have these licensed arrest
powers are usually restricted to
felony arrest ONLY. They do not
have misdemeanor arrest
authority and if they do detain
someone for a category
misdemeanor, they are liable for
abuse of power, liability claims,
and legal charges themselves.
10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 70
Special Police/ Special Powers
10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 71
The legal aspects:
 Hospital security personnel,
generally, are the largest licensed
group of special officers. Security
personnel who are licensed special
police officers are usually restricted
to the very property they are
assigned and have no other legal
powers elsewhere in the city or
county. The ID issued to such officers
will reflect on the back of the card
which property they are assigned to.
10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 72
The legal specifics:
 Regular private security personnel
are legally bound by the following:
1. Unlicensed, unarmed security
personnel are prohibited from
“touching” anyone for any reason.
2. Security personnel will never wear or
“display” any type of handcuff or
similar “restraint”.
3. Staff will never “restrain” any person
or hold them against their free will.
10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 73
The legal specifics:
4. Most importantly, corporate security
personnel shall never give the
“impression” that a person can not
leave of their own free will.
5. Personnel shall not prevent any
person from leaving the property,
either physically or by blocking
said exit or method of egress.
10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 74
The legal specifics:
6. Unarmed, unlicensed staff (special
powers) shall never carry any badge that
displays any “police” insignia or patches.
10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 75
Weapons Policy:
4. Private, unarmed corporate security
personnel are prohibited from
carrying the following weapons:
 Pepper spray/mace
 Police night sticks/ batons/ asps
 Leather blackjacks or knives
 Any firearms
 Tasers/ stun guns
 Anything considered a weapon
10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 76
Weapons Policy:
Some client sites may encourage or
grant their security personnel to
carry pepper spray. Officers who are
unarmed or have no arrest powers
but are allowed to carry pepper
spray is fine. However, to carry this
incapacitating agent, you must be
trained to use it, you must have a
license to carry it, and it must be of
5 or 10% Oleoresin Capsicum (the
active agent in the spray).
10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 77
Examples of Pepper Spray:
10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 78
Weapons Policy:
Although regular unarmed
uniformed security officers have
many restrictions in terms of
weapons and arrest powers, there are
certain situations where detaining or
using physical force maybe
necessary. These volatile situations
will most likely involve extreme acts
of violence on your property or acts
of violence against you or a fellow
security officer.

Legal liability & the consequences:
10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 80
Legal liability & the consequences
If you in the course of your duties as
a corporate security officer elect to
ignore the policies & procedures
outlined here in reference to arrest,
detaining, or use of unauthorized
weapons, then be prepared for costly
consequences. These actions if
engaged in, can be very expensive if
civil litigation is commenced toward
the company, the client company, and
even yourself.
10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 81
Legal liability & the consequences
Making false arrests or
even briefly detaining an
otherwise free individual,
is a serious, serious
offense, and it won’t be
tolerated.

When a private security
officer abuses his or her
authority and places a
private citizen in
handcuffs, or they detain
them for whatever reason,
then what they are
ultimately doing is:

Legal Authority Recap:
1) A Security Officer is not a police
officer - you do not have the
same job duties as a police
officer, the same training or the
same powers as a peace officer
according to the law.
2) A Security Officer that pretends
or even implies they are a police
officer is committing a crime.
10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 85
Legal Authority Recap:
3) A Security Officer's role is to protect
the people and property of his/her
employer or contracted client.
4) A Security Officer's responsibility
before an incident has occurred is
prevention.
5) A Security Officer's responsibility
after an incident-offense has
occurred is to observe and report.
10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 86
Legal Authority Recap:
6) A Security Officer should
be highly visible. By
being seen, the officer
may discourage anyone
who might be considering
theft, damage, or
personal injury.
10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 87
Legal Authority Recap:
7) A Security Officer should follow
the post orders and policies of
the employer and client he/she is
contracted to as long as it does
not break the security officers'
code of ethics or any laws. These
may include checking ID's,
keeping the parking lot cleared,
observing inside for possible
trouble, etc...
10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 88
Legal Authority Recap:
8) If an incident does
occur, observe carefully
and take accurate notes.
Report immediately to
the local law
enforcement and your
supervisor.
10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 89
Legal Authority Recap:
9) You do have the power to
arrest (the same as a private
citizen) but the crime must be
done in your presence and
view. Once you make an
arrest you must turn them
over to a peace officer, you
cannot un-arrest them.

The Uniform:
10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 94
The Hard Look VS. The Soft Look:
There are 2 basic standard uniforms
utilized in the security industry
across the United States today. One
is known as the “hard look” and the
other, the “soft look”. The hard look
is the traditional “police look” which
usually consists of standard blue
police pants (some striped), white or
blue military type shirt, a garrison
belt, metal badge, and sometimes, a
hat- traditional or baseball cap.
10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 95
The Hard Look VS. The Soft Look:
The “soft look” is most recognized
as the corporate look and
considered more “user friendly”.
The uniform consists of corporate
suit pants (either black, blue, or
grey), a white standard shirt, a
blazer (usually blue or grey), name
tag instead of a badge, and a
dress tie.
10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 96
Physical Appearance:
How you look is how you’re
treated. If you come into work
dressed like a slob, expect to be
treated like a slob. I have heard
too many times the line “they
don’t respect me”. Don’ start with
the “they don’t respect me”
routine. It is fruitless and an
pointless argument.
10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 97
Physical Appearance:
As a security professional, if
you are wearing a dirty shirt
that is un-tucked, you are
unshaved, your tie has pizza
sauce on it, your uniform is
not pressed and cleaned, and
or your overall attitude is lax,
then expect “no respect”.
10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 98
Physical Appearance:
The officer who takes pride in his
uniform and appearance can expect to
be treated with dignity and yes,
“respect”. Your uniform is 50% of your
job and clearly defines you as that of
an authority figure. It represents who
you are and your purpose. The “hard”
or soft” look does not matter in the
grand scheme of things, as long as it
clearly states your position of
authority in the facility assigned.

Anatomy of a Uniform:
10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 100
Anatomy of a Uniform:
Shoes: Black leather shoes that can take
polish. Shoes (depending on site) should be
black leather shoes that can be shined and
always maintained. If there is no
operational or medical reason for personnel
to be wearing soft shoes (sneakers), then
proper dress shoes should be worn, always.
Belts-Black: Belts should be of proper
length and worn through the belt loops.
There should be no “tail” hanging in front as
they may wear their casual cloths.
10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 101
Anatomy of a Uniform:
Socks- Black: If employees state that they
wear athletic socks due to standing posts or
because of tours, suggest that they wear
two pairs of socks, with the outer socks
being the black dress socks. Regardless of
reason, black socks are absolutely required.
Shirt- White: Shirts should be cleaned and
pressed daily. Particular care should be
given to fit and the condition of collars and
cuffs. As the shirt gets older, the collar may
not hold its shape as well it should, even if it
is in good repair. Replace as needed.
10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 102
Anatomy of a Uniform:
Trousers: Proper fit, worn at the waist,
hemmed so that the legs break once when
they hit the top of the shoes. Proper length
of uniform pants is most critical, as poorly
hemmed pants are improper and disgraceful
Ties: Length should be so that the tie
touches the belt buckle or slightly higher,
but never lower than the buckle. Ties shall
always be snug around the collar and never
loosened until the end of your shift(s).
10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 103
Anatomy of a Uniform:
Blazers: Proper fit and dry cleaned
periodically. When ever possible,
blazers should have the top button
buttoned. Blazers are to be worn at all
times, regardless of weather or off
hour shifts. Issued blazers are an
integral and primary tool in your role
as a corporate security officer.
Lapel Pins: To be worn as issued. (Mgt.)
10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 104
Uniform Tie Regulations
10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 105
Policy – Corporate security officers
do not have a “summer uniform”.
Thru all 4 seasons, the standard
attire is the blazer, long sleeve white
shirt and tie. These items must be
worn as required no matter what the
climate or weather conditions. There
have been complaints that the blazer
and long sleeve shirt coupled with
the tie are stifling during the hot
summer months and not “fair”.
10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 106
Policy –
That argument is not valid
and dismissed. Just about
every building lobby I have
been in was well ventilated and
more than reasonably cool.
During breaks, taking the
blazer off is certainly
reasonable.
10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 107
Uniform Lapel Pins:
Lapel Pins: Lapel pins can be an
integral part of your uniform and your
appearance of authority. Professional,
approved lapel pins without question
give the Officer and the uniform a
much more sharper image. Uniform
lapel pins are generally distributed to
staff by Mgt. and usually notate the
company name and may incorporate
the American flag within it’s design.
10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 108
Uniform Lapel Pins:
Other acceptable lapel pins are the
ASIS Foundation pins, CPP
designation pins, and the lone
American flag pins. Lapel pins that
promote any political affiliations,
religious preference, sexual
orientation, or national origin are
inappropriate and strictly forbidden
while on duty.

10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 111
Fallacy- Commando sweaters can’t be worn with
corporate security attire. Answer. Untrue. Blue
commando sweaters can be worn over the shirt as
long as the tie is visible (top). But not the green type.
10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 112
Safety- should be worn at all times
while on routine night exterior patrols~

Got tattoos?
Tattoos have become very popular
in American culture these past 15-20
years. Tattoos can be colorful and
creative. In terms of tattoos, this
presentation makes no judgement
whatsoever about them. However, in
the corporate workplace, especially
high profile security lobby operations,
they must be covered up. They are not
professional and unacceptable.
“Personal appearance
makes all the difference”
Being responsible, punctual, well
dressed, and detailed are absolute
prerequisites to leadership

Legal Authority- Uniform Protocol- Richard Garrity

  • 1. Légal Authority Guidelines Uniform Protocol-Standards By: Mr. Richard Garrity
  • 2. This PowerPoint presentation is proprietary information and can not be reproduced or copied in any fashion without the consent of the publisher owner, Richard Garrity
  • 3. When people employed in the security industry or the corporate world for that matter, FAIL, it is generally because of two reasons. “Lack of leadership and lack of training”. RCG
  • 4. “ Failure is certain, when training is lacking”.
  • 5. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 5 This PowerPoint presentation will focus on five key aspects of security and lobby operations. They are: 1. Security Officer / Police Officer 2. Legal Authority / Use of Force 3. Uniform Protocols 4. Personal Grooming 5. Arrest/ Detain authority
  • 6. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 6 Scope of Definition and Policy: This policy defines the general expectations of Security personnel, as related to legal authority, uniform protocol, grooming, and other general expected standards and procedures.
  • 7. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 7 Private Security- A vital and growing industry
  • 8. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 8 First and Last Impressions: As a security officer, it’s important to dress neatly, confidently, and have an overall professional appearance because you not only represent yourself and your company, but also the client. Often, security personnel are the first and last people customers, visitors and employees see.
  • 9. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 9 Security Officer VS. Police Officer:
  • 10. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 10 The primary difference between a security officer and a police officer are as follows: A police officer is an “agent of the state’ and generally acts under the powers of the state and or local government to enforce laws, maintain order, and provide 911 response. They have warrantless vast arrest powers.
  • 11. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 11 Security Officer VS. Police Officer: A security officer is an “agent of the property owner” and acts under the said authority of property mgt. The security officer has, generally, no formal police or arrest powers, but is tasked with protection of property and life in the installation they are assigned. The primary duty of a security officer is to provide Fire Life Safety, deterrence, and 911 notification in situations that clearly call for it.
  • 12. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 12 Security Officer VS. Police Officer: • A security officer (or formerly called security guard) is a person who is paid to protect property, assets, or people. Security officers are usually privately and formally employed personnel. Often, security officers are uniformed and act to protect property and people.
  • 13. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 13 Security Officer VS. Police Officer: • They do this by maintaining a high visibility presence to deter illegal and inappropriate actions, either observing directly through patrols, by watching alarm systems or video cameras for signs of crime, fire or disorder; then taking action and reporting any incidents to their superiors, client, and emergency services as appropriate.
  • 14. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 14 Security Officer VS. Police Officer: • Security personnel are not police officers as we have stated earlier, unless they are security police, but are often identified as such due to similar uniforms and behaviors, especially on private property. Security personnel in the U.S. derive their powers from state laws, which allow them a contractual arrangement with clients that give them Agent of the Owner powers.
  • 15. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 15 Security Officer VS. Police Officer: •This includes a nearly unlimited power to question people with the absence of probable cause, requirements that frequently dog public law enforcement officers.
  • 16. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 16 Security Officer VS. Police Officer: • Since at least the Middle Ages in Europe, the term watchman was more commonly applied to this function. This term was carried over to North America where it was interchangeable with night-watchman until both terms were replaced with the modern security-based titles. Security officers are sometimes regarded as fulfilling a private policing function.
  • 17. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 17 Security Officer VS. Police Officer: • Many security firms and proprietary security departments practice the "detect, deter, observe and report" methodology. Security officers are not required to make arrests, but have the authority to make a citizen's arrest, or otherwise act as an agent of law enforcement at the request of a police officer, sheriff, federal authorities, and others.
  • 18. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 18 Security Officer VS. Police Officer: • If a private security officer or even special police officer acts at the behest of a police officer in detaining or arresting an individual, that security officer is then acting under “The color of law” and must abide by all legal means necessary and not over step his/her authority. If a security officer abuses that authority, they will be liable.
  • 19. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 19 Security Officer VS. Police Officer: What is “Color of Law? Color of law refers to an appearance of legal power to act but which may operate in violation of law. For example, though a police officer acts with the "color of law" authority to arrest someone, if such an arrest is made without probable cause the arrest may actually be in violation of law and in violation of their rights.
  • 20. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 20 Security Officer VS. Police Officer: What is “Color of Law? In other words, just because something is done with the "color of law", that does not mean that the action was lawful. When police or private security forces act outside their lawful authority and violate the civil rights of a citizen, the FBI is tasked with investigating such instances and prosecuting.
  • 21. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 21 Primary Duty? A private security officer's primary duty is the prevention and deterrence of crime and Fire Life Safety. Security personnel enforce company rules and can act to protect lives and property. In fact, they frequently have a contractual obligation to provide these actions. Security officers are often trained to perform arrest and control procedures (including handcuffing and restraints), operate emergency equipment, perform first aid, CPR, take accurate notes, write detailed reports, and perform other tasks as required by the institution, contractee and or client they are serving.
  • 22. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 22 Security Officer VS. Police Officer: • One major economic justification for security personnel is that insurance companies (particularly fire insurance carriers) will give substantial rate discounts to sites which have a 24- hour presence; for a high risk or high value venue, the discount can often exceed the money being spent on its security program.
  • 23. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 23 Security Officer VS. Police Officer: • This is because having security on site increases the odds that any fire will be noticed and reported to the local fire department before a total loss occurs. Also, the presence of security personnel tends to diminish "shrinkage theft”, employee misconduct, safety rule violations, property damage, or even internal sabotage.
  • 24. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 24 Security Officer VS. Police Officer: Historically, private security and law enforcement agencies have not always maintained consistent and efficient relationships. A 1971 study conducted by the Rand Corporation described the typical private security guard as an aging white male, who was poorly educated, un-trained, and paid.
  • 25. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 25 Security Officer VS. Police Officer: However, by the mid 1980’s, that stero-type had drastically changed to an even mix of different races and ages. By the mid 2000’s, especially after 9-11, wages and training had increased exponentially.
  • 26. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 26 Security Officer VS. Police Officer: In 1976, the Private Security Advisory Council, through the U.S. Department of Justice, identified two main factors which contributed to poor relationships between law enforcement and private security personnel:
  • 27. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 27 Security Officer VS. Police Officer: 1) Their inability to clarify role definitions / responsibility 2) Their practice of stereotyping. The Hallcrest Report has also been highly credited for examining relationships between law enforcement and private security.
  • 28. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 28 Security Officer VS. Police Officer: The Hallcrest Report, published in 1985 by the National Institute of Justice, discovered that various law enforcement officials, together with proprietary institutions and contract security professionals, decided to convey police related actions to private security. Similarly, the Hallcrest Report II (Private Security Trends) concluded that private security is America's primary protective resource in terms of spending and employment.
  • 29. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 29 Security Officer VS. Police Officer: “In terms of spending and employment, private security is America's primary protective resource”. That is an amazing condition~
  • 30. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 30 Security Officer VS. Police Officer: Although the role of the Security Officer and the traditional Police Officer differ greatly, the private security personnel deployed around the nation act as a positive deterrent to routine crime, protection of property and potential terrorist threats. Certain levels of sensitive intel have also been shared between public & private agencies.
  • 31. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 31 Security Officer VS. Police Officer: Fact point: Recent research also found that private security currently employs approximately 1.5 million people and maintained annual expenditures of $52 billion (2004 figures). On the other hand, approximately 600,000 individuals are employed with federal, state, and local law enforcement and maintain a $30 billion expenditure service.
  • 32. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 32 Security Officer VS. Police Officer: Last, the increasing growth of private security and the limited growth of law enforcement is due to four main factors, according to the Hallcrest Report:
  • 33. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 33 Security Officer VS. Police Officer: 1. Increasing workplace crime and violence 2. Increasing fear of crime 3. A decreasing rate of spending for public protection 4. Increasing awareness and use of private security effective protective measures.
  • 34. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 34 Security Officer VS. Police Officer: In addition, police typically held private security officers to a lower standard because of their limited powers, whereas security directors & Managers believed police were uninterested or incapable of handling their crime; especially computer, white-collar, and in the extreme, terrorism offenses. The trend of these relationships in recent years however, has been toward partnership and liaison.
  • 35. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 35 Security Officer VS. Police Officer: For example, in the 1980's, only a handful of private security and law enforcement liaison programs existed, while today there are over 60 liaison programs in operation. In turn, Operation Cooperation has been a recent contributor to the encouragement of public- private teamwork. Operation Cooperation, funded by the U.S. Department of Justice and supported by the American Society for Industrial Security (ASIS), represents a major national initiative to encourage partnerships between law enforcement and private security organizations.
  • 36. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 36 Security Officer VS. Police Officer: Some examples of these partnerships: Virginia Police and Private Security Alliance (VAPPSA) , The Boston Police FDIN crime network, Dallas/North Texas Regional Law Enforcement and Security Program, and the Area Police/Private Security Liaison (APPL). This partnership is centered in New York City with the NYPD as the primary agency and partnership liaison.
  • 37. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 37 Liaisons and partnerships: Although liaisons and partnerships vary from program to program, they share similar characteristics. The following identifies common characteristics between police/security liaison programs: • 1) Networking: • Social gatherings designed to discuss common problems and aid each entity in understanding others in the program. • Lectures by security professionals at police training events and vice versus. • Directories of police and security contacts. •
  • 38. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 38 Liaisons and partnerships: 2) Information Sharing • Exchange of information on crimes and criminal convictions between law enforcement agencies and the private security industry. • Exchange of business crime in the same manner.
  • 39. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 39 Liaisons and partnerships: 3) Crime Prevention • Joint participation in business safety and security programs. • Community policing. • Addressing issues of local concern as it relates to police and security. • Joint public-private support of neighborhood watch programs.
  • 40. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 40 Liaisons and partnerships: 4) Training • Establishing training sessions on topics of interest and need (specifically terrorism and crime trends) • Exchange of training and expertise where the other entity lacks. • Police training of security and vice versus.
  • 41. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 41 Liaisons and partnerships: 5) Legislation • Joint supporting of laws and ordinances regarding security officer standards and licensing.
  • 42. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 42 Liaisons and partnerships: 6) Operations • Investigations • Incident planning and/or safety committees. • Joint sting operations and special weapons and tactics (SWAT) teams
  • 43. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 43 Liaisons and partnerships: 7) Research • Review and distribution of recent publications regarding current issues and technology within the public-private sectors.
  • 44. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 44 Liaisons and partnerships: Despite their differences, law enforcement agencies and private security organizations have increasingly come together to prevent and deter crime. Formality may differ, but all partnerships work to protect life and property. Thus far, the history of police and security and their relations has improved dramatically since 9/11.
  • 45. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 45 Liaisons and partnerships: More open attitudes and acceptance by the local Police and increased training and awareness by private security personnel have made the partnership transformation a much better entity.
  • 46. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 46 Liaisons and partnerships: Portions of the material just reviewed were extracted from and cited to: Law Enforcement and Private Security • Liaison: Partnerships for Cooperation • Whitney Gunter Jason Kidwell York College of Pennsylvania June 2004
  • 47. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 47 Landmark Legal Precedents:
  • 48. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 48 Escobedo V. Illinois- 1964
  • 49. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 49 Escobedo V. Illinois- 1964 Escobedo v. Illinois, 378 U.S. 478 (1964), was a United States Supreme Court case holding that criminal suspects have a right to counsel during police interrogations under the Sixth Amendment. The case was decided a year after the court held in Gideon v. Wainwright, 372 U.S. 335 (1963) that indigent criminal defendants had a right to be provided counsel at trial.
  • 50. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 50 Miranda VS. Arizona- 1966
  • 51. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 51 Miranda VS. Arizona- 1966 Miranda v. Arizona, 384 U.S. 436 (1966), was a landmark decision of the United States Supreme Court which passed 5–4. The Court held that both inculpatory and exculpatory statements made in response to interrogation by a defendant in police custody will be admissible at trial only if the prosecution can show that the defendant was informed of the right to consult with an attorney before and during questioning and of the right against
  • 52. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 52 Miranda VS. Arizona- 1966 self-incrimination prior to questioning by police, and that the defendant not only understood these rights, but voluntarily waived them. This had a significant impact on law enforcement in the United States, by making what became known as the Miranda rights part of routine police procedure to ensure that suspects were informed of their rights.
  • 53. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 53 Foot notes: Inculpatory evidence Inculpatory evidence is evidence that shows, or tends to show, a person's involvement in an act, or evidence that can establish guilt. In criminal law, the prosecution has a duty to provide all evidence to the defense, whether it favors the prosecution's case or the defendant's case. Evidence that tends to show a person's innocence is considered exculpatory evidence.
  • 54. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 54 Foot notes: Exculpatory evidence Exculpatory evidence is the evidence favorable to the defendant in a criminal trial, which clears or tends to clear the defendant of guilt. It is the opposite of inculpatory evidence, which tends to prove guilt. In many countries such as the United States, police or prosecutor are required to disclose to the defendant any exculpatory evidence they possess before the defendant makes a plea (guilty or not guilty).

  • 69. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 69 The legal aspects:  Private security personnel who have these licensed arrest powers are usually restricted to felony arrest ONLY.

Security personnel who are licensed special police officers are usually restricted to the very property they are assigned and have no other legal powers elsewhere in the city or county.

  • 76. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 76 Weapons Policy: Some client sites may encourage or grant their security personnel to carry pepper spray. Officers who are unarmed or have no arrest powers but are allowed to carry pepper spray is fine. However, to carry this incapacitating agent, you must be trained to use it, you must have a license to carry it, and it must be of 5 or 10% Oleoresin Capsicum (the active agent in the spray).

  • 81. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 81 Legal liability & the consequences Making false arrests or even briefly detaining an otherwise free individual, is a serious, serious offense, and it won’t be tolerated.
  • 82. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 82 When a private security officer abuses his or her authority and places a private citizen in handcuffs, or they detain them for whatever reason, then what they are ultimately doing is:
  • 83. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 83 Giving them alot of CASH!
  • 84. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 84 Legal Authority Recap: 1) A Security Officer is not a police officer - you do not have the same job duties as a police officer, the same training or the same powers as a peace officer according to the law. 2) A Security Officer that pretends or even implies they are a police officer is committing a crime.
  • 85. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 85 Legal Authority Recap: 3) A Security Officer's role is to protect the people and property of his/her employer or contracted client. 4) A Security Officer's responsibility before an incident has occurred is prevention. 5) A Security Officer's responsibility after an incident-offense has occurred is to observe and report.
  • 86. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 86 Legal Authority Recap: 6) A Security Officer should be highly visible. By being seen, the officer may discourage anyone who might be considering theft, damage, or personal injury.
  • 87. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 87 Legal Authority Recap: 7) A Security Officer should follow the post orders and policies of the employer and client he/she is contracted to as long as it does not break the security officers' code of ethics or any laws. These may include checking ID's, keeping the parking lot cleared, observing inside for possible trouble, etc...
  • 88. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 88 Legal Authority Recap: 8) If an incident does occur, observe carefully and take accurate notes. Report immediately to the local law enforcement and your supervisor.
  • 89. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 89 Legal Authority Recap: 9) You do have the power to arrest (the same as a private citizen) but the crime must be done in your presence and view. Once you make an arrest you must turn them over to a peace officer, you cannot un-arrest them.

  • 93. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 93 The Uniform:
  • 94. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 94 The Hard Look VS. The Soft Look: There are 2 basic standard uniforms utilized in the security industry across the United States today. One is known as the “hard look” and the other, the “soft look”. The hard look is the traditional “police look” which usually consists of standard blue police pants (some striped), white or blue military type shirt, a garrison belt, metal badge, and sometimes, a hat- traditional or baseball cap.
  • 95. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 95 The Hard Look VS. The Soft Look: The “soft look” is most recognized as the corporate look and considered more “user friendly”. The uniform consists of corporate suit pants (either black, blue, or grey), a white standard shirt, a blazer (usually blue or grey), name tag instead of a badge, and a dress tie.
  • 96. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 96 Physical Appearance: How you look is how you’re treated. If you come into work dressed like a slob, expect to be treated like a slob. I have heard too many times the line “they don’t respect me”. Don’ start with the “they don’t respect me” routine. It is fruitless and an pointless argument.
  • 97. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 97 Physical Appearance: As a security professional, if you are wearing a dirty shirt that is un-tucked, you are unshaved, your tie has pizza sauce on it, your uniform is not pressed and cleaned, and or your overall attitude is lax, then expect “no respect”.
  • 98. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 98 Physical Appearance: The officer who takes pride in his uniform and appearance can expect to be treated with dignity and yes, “respect”. Your uniform is 50% of your job and clearly defines you as that of an authority figure. It represents who you are and your purpose. The “hard” or soft” look does not matter in the grand scheme of things, as long as it clearly states your position of authority in the facility assigned.
  • 99. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 99 Anatomy of a Uniform:
  • 100. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 100 Anatomy of a Uniform: Shoes: Black leather shoes that can take polish. Shoes (depending on site) should be black leather shoes that can be shined and always maintained. If there is no operational or medical reason for personnel to be wearing soft shoes (sneakers), then proper dress shoes should be worn, always. Belts-Black: Belts should be of proper length and worn through the belt loops. There should be no “tail” hanging in front as they may wear their casual cloths.
  • 101. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 101 Anatomy of a Uniform: Socks- Black: If employees state that they wear athletic socks due to standing posts or because of tours, suggest that they wear two pairs of socks, with the outer socks being the black dress socks. Regardless of reason, black socks are absolutely required. Shirt- White: Shirts should be cleaned and pressed daily. Particular care should be given to fit and the condition of collars and cuffs. As the shirt gets older, the collar may not hold its shape as well it should, even if it is in good repair. Replace as needed.
  • 102. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 102 Anatomy of a Uniform: Trousers: Proper fit, worn at the waist, hemmed so that the legs break once when they hit the top of the shoes. Proper length of uniform pants is most critical, as poorly hemmed pants are improper and disgraceful Ties: Length should be so that the tie touches the belt buckle or slightly higher, but never lower than the buckle. Ties shall always be snug around the collar and never loosened until the end of your shift(s).
  • 103. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 103 Anatomy of a Uniform: Blazers: Proper fit and dry cleaned periodically. When ever possible, blazers should have the top button buttoned. Blazers are to be worn at all times, regardless of weather or off hour shifts. Issued blazers are an integral and primary tool in your role as a corporate security officer. Lapel Pins: To be worn as issued. (Mgt.)
  • 104. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 104 Uniform Tie Regulations
  • 105. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 105 Policy – Corporate security officers do not have a “summer uniform”. Thru all 4 seasons, the standard attire is the blazer, long sleeve white shirt and tie. These items must be worn as required no matter what the climate or weather conditions. There have been complaints that the blazer and long sleeve shirt coupled with the tie are stifling during the hot summer months and not “fair”.
  • 106. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 106 Policy – That argument is not valid and dismissed. Just about every building lobby I have been in was well ventilated and more than reasonably cool. During breaks, taking the blazer off is certainly reasonable.
  • 107. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 107 Uniform Lapel Pins: Lapel Pins: Lapel pins can be an integral part of your uniform and your appearance of authority. Professional, approved lapel pins without question give the Officer and the uniform a much more sharper image. Uniform lapel pins are generally distributed to staff by Mgt. and usually notate the company name and may incorporate the American flag within it’s design.
  • 108. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 108 Uniform Lapel Pins: Other acceptable lapel pins are the ASIS Foundation pins, CPP designation pins, and the lone American flag pins. Lapel pins that promote any political affiliations, religious preference, sexual orientation, or national origin are inappropriate and strictly forbidden while on duty.

  • 111. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 111 Fallacy- Commando sweaters can’t be worn with corporate security attire. Answer. Untrue. Blue commando sweaters can be worn over the shirt as long as the tie is visible (top). But not the green type.

However ultimate discretion is left to that of the Account or District Manager for further review and follow up.
  • 124. 10/31/15 Free template from www.brainybetty.com 124 Grooming: Him and Her “HIM” Use of deodorant or antiperspirant along with regular bathing is required due to the constant interaction with others.

In terms of tattoos, this presentation makes no judgement whatsoever about them. However, in the corporate workplace, especially high profile security lobby operations, they must be covered up. They are not professional and unacceptable.
