Training expectations for unarmed and armed private security guards, supervisor ratios, medical fitness, and deployment discipline.
Training expectations for unarmed and armed private security guards, supervisor ratios, medical fitness, and deployment discipline.
Complete State-recognised curricula covering access control, patrolling, fire basics, emergencies, and legal awareness. Deploy only after certification and agency induction.
Armed capability requires additional weapon licences and training tracks — not every PSARA agency starts armed. Do not market armed services without lawful permissions.
Rules commonly prescribe supervisor-to-guard ratios (often around 1:15, tighter when posts are spread). Supervisors need experience and training beyond entry-level guards.
Some States publish height, chest, hearing, and medical examination requirements. Annual medicals appear in several Rule sets.
Even trained guards need site-specific briefing: emergency contacts, restricted zones, visitor rules, and escalation paths.
