  • Ensure that all assigned protective equipment, including firearms, are maintained in excellent working condition and used responsibly in accordance with state laws and company policies.
  • Utilize firearms safely and effectively only as an absolute last resort when all other means of verbal de-escalation have been completely exhausted.
  • Provide regular status updates to security supervisors regarding ongoing security matters.
  • Interact courteously and professionally with employees, visitors, and members of the public.
