Be reliable and punctual

Be reliable and punctual 

Reliability and punctuality are characteristics that can make or break the positive image of the Security Guard. It is advisable to be at the site fifteen minutes before the start of the guard’s shift. This is advisable so that the Security Guard can be properly briefed on the events that occurred during the previous shift. It also gives the Security Guard time to be fully prepared for the shift and ensures that the guard being relieved can leave promptly at the end of their shift. If the Security Guard is going to be late due to unforeseen circumstances then they must give the dispatcher enough time to inform the guard already on shift. Punctuality enhances reliability. By being punctual, the guard shows the client that they are reliable. Being reliable and punctual reflects well on a guard’s performance and will be reflected in a positive performance evaluation.
