Your prices are extremely competitive, but we really like the security officers we have at the moment. Would we be able to keep the same security officers if we switched companies?2025-12-23T19:46:43+00:00

Yes, if you agree to switch your current security service provider a member of our management team would speak to each Security Officer individually and ask if they would be interested in transferring to our company under TUPE regulations. Providing the Security Officers are happy to do so, they will remain on your premises.
