Basic security guard training Unit 5 Lesson (C)
A security patrol is an important part of the security guard duty. A guard tours to keep watch over the area; it makes you more visible, which deters crime. While staying in a post, you can not observe a large portion of the site, but you can go for patrol. You can cover more areas and observe what is going on in the surroundings.
The security guard plays a crucial role in protecting people, property, and information. Their presence alone, as a uniformed guard, can deter crime. Regular patrols further extend this protective umbrella, covering a wider area and enhancing security.
The main purpose of the patrol is maintaining the security in the premises under your authority. The patrol helps you to identify the situation around your site and take action if it requires.
