It is a legal requirement for all Security Guards working in the UK to hold a current, Front Line Security Industry Association (SIA) licence where they will be carrying out most security-related activities. More broadly, it is the responsibility of all employers to provide employees with sufficient training to carry out their job safely. We at Pure Security Services recognise that the training of our staff is central to the standard and consistency of the service that we provide.

Site Specific Training

The training requirements for our security staff are not identicle from site to site. It is important that all new staff and anyone who has transferred to a new role is familiar with the details of their role. At each site where work we ensure that our security operatives have received the following training:

• Site-specific Fire Safety training
• Site-specific induction
• Risk Assessment induction and training

This is in addition to the following standard training practices:

• Statutory SIA licence training
• General Health and Safety
• Manual Handling
• Dealing with agression and dangerous situations
• Fire Safety

Employee Responsibilities

All staff are responsible for the following aspects of their training and development:

• Completing training sessions
• Keeping track of their own training and development
• Bringing to the attention of management any training needs that they have identified in themselves
• Following the instructions given during training

Health & Safety Training

All staff will be provided with adequate Health & Safety training to enable them to carry out their job safely and without an elevated risk to their health. Health & Safety training is to be revisted annually to ensure that key information and any updates to required processes remain clear throughout each individual's employment with us. For more information take a look at our Health & Safety page.
