Do these three things for your Guard Firm Now!
Introduction:
Security Guard Firms experience growth and lack of personnel, but we don't intend this to happen this way, we just need a couple pillars to start in the right direction to gain peace of mind.
With rising inflation, the uptick of crime, and increased workplace violence in industries like retail, manufacturing, and property management, the need for good security guard personnel is greater than ever! Organizations across the country rely on security guard firms to procure vetted, trained and reliable personnel to keep their people and assets safe.
However, our landscape of security staffing across the U.S. is marked by its own set of complexities, presenting big challenges for security firms today. Some firms wake up each morning to "Open Posts" or known as unmanned hours not even knowing how they can even be filled that day or days ahead. It's very tough!
Ok, you somehow got them staffed, but now usually what suffers most is guards NOT knowing how to perform duties at a site, citing lack of training, or given any post orders. The majority of companies want to do it right, they're just overwhelmed with hiring, call-offs just putting out normal daily fires!!!
But in reality, its the Guard Firms difficulties they experience in setting up a few pillars to keep them in the fight daily..
Here a few strategies to start to regain some of that consistency back!!
1. Focus on employee CULTURE! One of the biggest ways security firms can enhance retention rates are to prioritize employee well-being and job satisfaction. That could look like creating a positive work environment, offering well thought plans for TRUE opportunities of career advancement. Look to create gamification in you company ! This can make employees work harder and become engaged.
2. Leverage on Guard Reporting Technology. PROBABLY THIS BIGGEST ONE HERE-WHY??? Security Guard firms can now leverage AI Guard Reporting technology strategies and concepts to allow each guard uniformly, to increase their individual work output and elevate their job knowledge while working the site! The use of the Reporting Tool keeps things simple, meanwhile still following all of your teams operations and post instructions. This improves efficiency twofold for your clients with better detailed reporting, but more importantly your guards will know what to do, where, and how. That creates consistency.
3. Strong partnerships. A good network is a key to success. Security firms can build strong partnerships with educational institutions like ASIS, industry associations and government to access talent pipelines, stay informed about industry trends and best practices, and collaborate on training and certification programs.
Security Guard staffing has a few unique challenges in the current market. But by understanding the nuances of the industry, focusing on talent development, introducing gamification, and increased company culture. As well, leveraging Guard Reporting technology, and building strong partnerships, your organization can navigate the complexities of security staffing successfully and build a resilient and effective security workforce for the future.
