LJB Security Training has just published an article that analyzes the work environment of a security guard. Given the diversity of objects and installations that require security services, as well as the varying methods of surveillance, a guard could end up in front of a monitor or on foot; talking to crowds of people or walking a lonely beat in the dead of night; guarding an austere deep-water port or a lush and extravagant casino.

Based on numbers and descriptions from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the article delves into the varying challenges that security officers face in the course of their work.

The article is up on EzineArticles, a press release and distribution service. It is only the first in a planned series on the working realities of a security officer; to read more, please follow the link. In addition to informational materials, LJB Security Training offers one-day CT Guard Card courses for individuals who want to become security officers in the Nutmeg State.
