Why Hire Security Guards in Tampa Bay and the surrounding area?

  • Security – The very presence of a security guard at a business can provide peace of mind and a sense of security to business owners, employees and customers.
  • Prevention – Simply having a security guard present is the best deterrent to crime. A security guard is a much greater visual deterrent than either camera surveillance or a standard security system.
  • Training – ESS Security Guards are trained to look for suspicious activity on the spot. They can assess a situation and react to security accordingly as trained.

And speaking of training, all our guards are trained at the ESS Global Security School, which is the only security school in the entire state of Florida that is licensed and approved by the D.O.E.

ESS Global – Tampa Bay Security Guards

tampa bay security guardsWhen business owners think about hiring security guards, one of their first thoughts is “how well are they trained?”, because when you take a hard look at security, it’s all about the training.
Forty-one states (including Florida), plus the District of Columbia, license security officers, but requirements vary greatly from state to state. While nine states—Colorado, Idaho, Kansas, Kentucky, Mississippi, Missouri, Nebraska, South Dakota and Wyoming—do not license security officers at the state level, all while some cities within them do.
There is no national standard.
But let’s talk about Florida. Here in Tampa Bay security guards are regulated by the Florida Department of Agriculture, under current director Adam Putnam. Here are the current licenses Security Licenses that Florida grants.

  • “D” – Security Officer: Any individual who performs the services of a security officer must have a Class “D” license.
  • “M” or “MB” – Manager of a Security Agency: A Class “B” Security Agency or Class “BB” or “AB” branch office must have a Class “M” or Class “MB” licensed manager.
  • “G” – Statewide Firearm license: Only Class “D,” Class “M,” or Class “MB” licensees are permitted to bear a firearm and any such licensee who bears a firearm must also have a Class “G” license.
  • “K” – Firearms Instructor: Any person who provides classroom and range instruction to applicants for Class “G” licensure must have a Class “K” license.
  • “DI” – Security Officer Instructor: Any person who provides classroom instruction to applicants for Class “D” licensure must have a Class “DI” license.

So yes. In Florida both armed (G) and unarmed (D) Security Guards are licensed by the State, through the Department of Agriculture. 

What About the Security Guard Schools?

That would be the Security Training. Who regulates that? Who teaches this “G” and “D” stuff?
In a word, Nobody.
