“The appreciation week is also an opportunity to profile the many roles security officers fill; debunk misconceptions and stereotypes; and raise awareness of the career opportunities that exist within the security services industry.”

The security officers who strive to help maintain safe and secure workplaces, schools, shopping malls and communities deserve our heartfelt appreciation.

Security officers are hard-working, highly trained men and women who serve amongst our country’s protectors, guardians and first responders.

These individuals deter crime, lead evacuations, provide information, work closely with local law enforcement and are constantly vigilant in their efforts to keep us safe.

The great work of security officers across the country can easily be taken for granted as, in today’s society, a security presence has become the expectation.

But these professionals are much more than part of the backdrop of our communities and workplaces.

This dedicated week of appreciation will:

  • Recognize their contributions
  • Profile the many roles security officers fill
  • Debunk old misconceptions and stereotypes
  • Raise awareness for security career opportunities
