We're now at the point in the UK's coronavirus journey where local lockdowns are becoming much more frequent and recognised as a possibility. As a business owner, this means a potentially uncertain future until a solution -- such as a vaccine -- becomes a reality. Along with many other factors, the security of your business premises and the security of your staff and customers needs to be considered. A trained and trustworthy security service has never been more important, and here's why:

They understand the importance of social distancing and how best this can be implemented dependent on venue

Social distancing is a difficult concept in a lot of ways, it means going against our natural human instinct to go about our daily lives, meeting new people and exploring new places. As inquisitive creatures, it means being acutely aware of your surroundings and making unnatural decisions on distancing yourself from people around you. This makes security officers, in place to support social distancing measures, a priceless measure that all businesses should heavily consider, especially during a local lockdown when measures are stricter.

They understand how to effectively communicate to both staff and the general public

Communicating to the general public is part of our role as security officers, whether that's door supervisors, mobile patrols or manned guarding. In recent months, with social distancing measures changing weekly, we have been able to fine-tune our communication skills to ensure that government guidelines are clear and respected.
