Our security guards are needed – but set higher requirements

"Our security guards are needed – but set higher requirements"

"the Debaters: Some crimes must render a contract of employment for all future"

"This is an opinion piece. It is the writer who stands for the views that are put forward in the text, not Against."

"the DEBATE. The recent audits of the security industry, highlights a number of issues that we must take seriously. It is about the suitability of the controls, but it is also about the professionals who are willing to stand between danger and the citizens should be given the right conditions to do just this. "

"the Industry's mission is to protect the democracy. The one who does not share the democratic values are not suitable to work in the industry, and the resources needed to check the suitability. In addition, the need for new legislation and better education. "

"the Society's security guards and the stewards have a vital importance in the trygghetsarbetet. Trust from the community is a privilege that must be earned every day. It becomes especially important when an increasing proportion of the work done on the public mission and in the public place such as shopping centre and public transport. "

"the industry has grown has several explanations. Fundamentally there are changes in society where many are experiencing increased insecurity, coupled with the police and other law enforcement authorities ' lack of resources."

"In the public debate, it seems sometimes that that security companies would replace the police, but it is not true. Security guards and stewards supplement the police. We welcome the fact that the government has announced an extension of the number of police officers, because the industry's employees are among the hardest hit when it is delayed until police are on scene when something occurred. They are expected to often act as social workers, firefighters and health care professionals in addition to their regular assignments. "

"But it will take some time until we have more police officers on our streets. Until the industry can ease the burden with the tasks that fit within our powers. "

"Against this background it is obvious to us that employment in the industry must be combined with a hard verification of the suitability. Today we have a statutory model, where both the company and each of the employees reviewed, approved and authorised by the provincial government with the support of the Fbi. "

"of Course, businesses also have a responsibility for background checks, and of each individual employment is the responsibility of the company. But the part of the review that relates to a person's suitability will always be best of authorities, then this is where you have access to the relevant information. "

"In the day is generally the case that a job seeker must have been exempt from punishment of five years in order to gain employment in the industry. From the industry's side, we wish that the time required to have been guiltless extended. Similarly, it should be considered that some crimes will render impossible the employment of a security firm for all future. "

"Moreover, the provincial governments have more resources to carry out the checks of the security companies and personnel as the law expressly requires. "

"We as parties clearly and emphatically distances itself from all forms of racism. The diversity in the industry is absolutely crucial in order to cope with today's surveillance operations. Functional safety is also a precondition for a more inclusive society. Just the most affected by the growing insecurity are groups that also are the most vulnerable in society, and it is not the least of which as the guardian and the stewards can make a difference."

"in Order to continue to cope with these assignments we also want to see over the relevant regulations and training. We welcome the government's appointment of an investigation of the ordningsvaktslagen. A possible future requirement is that the stewards should have a security guard at the bottom. "

"in Addition, should the courses be supplemented with specific special training courses for the different specialisations of the future bevakningsyrken will have. This can be anything from training in the treatment of people in difficult and threatening situations, better education, drogkunskap, terrorberedskap and training in the social services act have a given place. "

"I work to create a safer and more secure Sweden has security guards and stewards a crucial role. Our interaction with the Police is also becoming increasingly better and more concrete. That industry, therefore, we jointly call on policy makers to strengthen the conditions for serious players and the staff to do a good job. A safe guarding personnel provide a safer society."
