Private security officers are playing a growing role in ensuring the safety and accessibility of public spaces, but their efforts are often underappreciated, a report by the Scanlon Foundation Research Institute says.
Security guards seen at a venue and the International student Madhur Modgill , who works as a security guard in a Melbourne mall.A new report has found security officers often go unrecognised for their efforts and the impact they have on keeping society open and safe.
"But I have encountered incidents where people tried to physically attack me. However, those are rare," he told SBS Hindi.Modgill, who is directly employed by a security company, added that the job is well-paid. Prentice echoed similar views on the importance of security guards, noting also that the sector employs a large number of migrant workers.
"As a result, personnel are often poorly paid and face job insecurity, experiencing what is known as 'labour market disadvantage'." According to the ASIAL, the security sector in Australia is expanding rapidly, with over 160,000 licensed security officers nationwide."The changing security threat environment has driven growing demand for the services provided by the security industry."
