Key Highlights:
1. Preventive protection of people, property, and assets
2. Professionally trained and regulated by the Federal Police
3. Activities in access control, monitoring, and patrols
The security guard's role is to **protect people, property, and assets**, acting preventively to avoid crimes and incidents—controlling access, conducting patrols, monitoring security systems, and intervening in emergencies—always complying with legislation and operating as a professionally trained and regulated individual accredited by the Federal Police, authorized to carry firearms and handcuffs (in many cases), and working in diverse settings such as companies, events, and cash-in-transit operations.
**Main Responsibilities:**
* **Access Control:** Supervise entry and exit of people, vehicles, and materials, ensuring only authorized individuals gain access.
* **Monitoring:**
* Observe and identify suspicious behavior using equipment such as cameras and alarms
* .
* **Patrols and Inspections:** Walk through premises to detect anomalies and prevent theft or damage.
* **Prevention:** Act to prevent robberies, acts of violence, and other breaches of order and security.
* **Report Writing:** Record incidents and prepare detailed reports.
* **Emergency Support:** Notify authorities and provide information, as well as assist in evacuations or high-risk situations.
* **Escorting and Cash-in-Transit:** Protect people and assets (e.g., money) during transportation, when qualified.
**Difference from Watchman/Doorman:**
* A security guard is a **qualified** professional, having completed specific formal training and certified by the Federal Police, authorized to carry firearms and handcuffs, and regulated by law (Law No. 7,102\/83\).
* A watchman, by contrast, lacks this formal training and certification, focusing primarily on basic surveillance without equivalent intervention authority.
In summary, a security guard is a security professional with specific responsibilities and training to ensure the integrity of a location or individual, going beyond simple surveillance.
