Selecting the right security company is not only important, it’s extremely difficult. With over 15,000 contract security companies out there, it can be like searching for a needle in a haystack. As one of the most respected Orlando security agencies, we thought we’d leave you with a list of seven questions that you can use to help you find the perfect agency for you:
- What is your annual employee, as well as management, turnover rate?
Many companies in the contract security industry have an extremely high turnover rate. Think about it… do you really want a brand new force every three or four months? - What is your customer retention rate? Can you provide customer satisfaction surveys for us to see?
- Do you have any letters of recommendation?
- What is your Worker’s Compensation Experience Modification Factor (EMF), as well as your YTD (Year-to-Date) and five-year OSHA Injury Incident Rates?
It’s a good idea to know the sort of safety record each agency has. These tangible numbers can help you when making comparisons. A safety conscious company will tend to have better officers in general as well. - Can you provide me a listing of your closed and open litigation history and outcome of lawsuits?
- Can I see your insurance certificate?
- What kind of security training is provided to the officers, supervisors, and managers?
Remember, the security company you hire will be responsible for protecting your employees and your property. Selecting the wrong one may result in significant losses, accidents, and even bad publicity for your company. So take the selection process seriously.
