  1. Security Personnel at Office Entrances—Safeguarding Your Employees The recent mass murder of 12 people in a municipal building in Virginia Beach sheds light on building access security. If an individual intent on creating mayhem, whether employee or visitor, is forced to walk through an entrance checkpoint, complete with a metal detector, would that person have second thoughts? It’s a tough question to answer, but secure entrances, manned by workplace security guards, can make a difference in stopping would-be intruders and possibly mass shooters.

  2. Checkpoint Security​. Trained security officers at entry points wear several hats. They must make sure all those who enter a building go through the checkpoint. In more and more cases, that means going through a metal screening process—where they pass through a metal detection devise. The safety and security of employees and visitors must be top of mind even as guards welcome those entering the building. Keeping the proper balance between the two functions are critical. Weeks, months or even years may go by where no one tries to enter illegally or with the intent to do harm. Workplace security guards must remain alert even if the chance of improper action or other emergency is small. That’s where security guard training and management come into play. The security guard company you select for your building safety and checkpoint support will know the right length of each shift so that building entrances are always monitored efficiently.
