Security guard

To work as a security guard in the UK and Australia you need to obtain a? license through the regulatory body responsible for regulating the private security industry.

In the UK, the steps involved are:

?Choose the Right License: Determine the specific type of security work you want to do, as there are different licenses for various roles.

?Training: Enroll in a training course with an SIA-approved training provider. The training usually covers relevant topics such as legal and ethical issues, conflict management, and first aid.

?Apply for the License: After successfully completing the training, you can apply for the SIA license online. Ensure you have the necessary documents and information ready for the application.

?Background Check: As part of the application process, you will undergo a criminal record check. It's essential to have a clean criminal record to qualify for the license.

?Pay the Fee: There is a fee associated with the SIA license application. Make sure to pay the required amount as part of the application process.

?Wait for Approval: Once you've submitted your application, you'll need to wait for the SIA to process it. This can take several weeks, so be patient.

?Receive Your License: If your application is approved, you will receive your SIA license. Make sure to keep it updated and comply with any additional requirements or regulations.

After all this you can get a job standing outside an office or wandering about a shopping centre, getting paid an average of £9 an hour. (If you need to look at CCTV, that means extra training and licensing. Same if you are working a pub.) You have no access to papers, documents, or information, which are normally locked away.

Cyber security

Nothing. Fill your boots. No licencing or competency requirements. Just wave a certificate from an online school, spout a few acronyms, and you get paid between £10-20 an hour. And you can have full access to all the nooks and crannies of a business, not to mention the boss's browsing habits.
