In-House Security vs. Licensed Security Agency – What Alabama Businesses Need to Know!
Did you know that in Alabama, businesses can hire their own in-house security instead of using a licensed agency? But here’s the catch… it might cost you more in the long run!
🔴 The Hidden Risks of In-House Security:
❌ Full Liability – If something goes wrong, your business is 100% responsible.
❌ Training & Compliance Gaps*– Alabama requires proper certification—are your guards fully compliant?
❌ Payroll, Insurance & HR Headaches – Workers’ comp, benefits, and turnover make in-house security expensive.
❌ No Backup Support – If your in-house guard calls out, who covers your security needs?
✅ Why Hiring a Licensed Security Agency is the Smarter Choice:
✔ Shields your business from liability risks
✔ Certified, trained, and fully compliant guards
✔ Lower employment costs & hassle-free security
✔ Reliable backup & 24/7
