Purpose
This plan will help provide security, crime prevention and response for the protection of people and property on Historic Front Street. Our entire team of security officers assigned to this post will protect HFS through effective communication, diligent work ethic, and adherence to policies and procedures outlined by Universal Protection Service. Use this manual to increase your ability to prepare for, prevent, respond to, and mitigate criminal acts as well as safety hazards- it is a valuable reference for understanding your job and duties at this work site.
Our Objectives
1. Obligation to our Client
a. Ensure quality of service b. Protect privacy of client information- Before giving someone information, think to yourself whether someones knowledge of this will compromise security and/or if the Client would want to keep this information private. Use your best judgment. c. Fulfill our contractual requirements
need to radio your partner for assistance, you will be able to give them your location quickly. Obviously if youre the one who is asked for assistance, you need to know where to go. Be dependable: The Company, the Client, and your fellow security officers have to be able to depend on you. No officer should have to do double the work because the other is lazy and no officer should consistently have to wait to be relieved of duty. Overall professional appearance: How you look is equally as, if not more important than what you say. Your uniform represents the Company and yourself. Uniforms must be clean and wrinkle free. Your boots should be, preferably, polished but at the least should be clean- were not construction workers. If you take yourself and your work seriously, so will others. Body language speaks volumes. Do everything tactically, deliberately, and with purpose. If youre standing- then stand tall with your head up and back straight. Patrolling is not strolling. Walk with purpose- constantly scanning the properties with your eyes, listening for strange sounds, and smelling for fire or gas leaks.
Effective Communication
Proper attitude: If you have a negative attitude you can not communicate effectively. Understand your duties: Be informed and stay current of your duties, post orders and facilities rules and regulations. Be sensitive and compassionate: Be flexible. If you encounter a person who needs special attention try to accommodate him or her. Listen & interpret: Listen to what they have to say. Make sure you understand what it is that a superior, the Client, or a visitor is asking of you.
Fire Safety
All the fire extinguishers on site are multi-purpose and rated for class A, B, and C fires. Know where the fire extinguishers are- there are 3 in the front room and 1 in the back room in the temporary main office (217 Front St.), as well as 1 in the security base (216 Front St.). Ordinary Combustibles: These are paper, cloth, wood, rubber, and plastic. These materials are often found in the dumpsters, garbage cans, and in virtually every commercial space. Look in the dumpsters periodically and try to find the source of a burning smell in order to lessen the threat of the spread of fire. A lit cigarette thrown into the garbage is enough to set paper ablaze. Flammable liquids: This includes oils, gasoline, and grease. There are several power generators on site that use gasoline or diesel fuel. Also, some of the cleaning solutions used are flammable. Know this information in case you have to inform fire department personnel.
Electrical equipment: This is when there is fire in wiring, fuse boxes, computers, and other electrical sources. During daytime construction workers set up flood lights and use several 50 foot extension cables to supply electricity to the lighting and other power tools they use in the buildings. Any electrical wiring can be a cause for trouble and they should all be unplugged when they arent in use- especially overnight. Also, since it was sea water which flooded the area, it had a lot of salt in it. The water may have taken time to dry but it left behind salt which is conductive- under the right conditions electricity can spark fires on wood/paper which still may contain salt.
