Benefits of Getting ACS Status
Obtaining ACS status is an effective way for private security companies to demonstrate that they offer a high-quality service. This status indicates that the company operates ethically and legally, and hires licensed, trained, and properly screened security staff.
Having ACS status not only helps to fulfill its primary objective of protecting the public, but also provides assurance to all stakeholders—including customers, consumers, the police, and end-users—that they are dealing with a highly professional security company.
To achieve approval, security companies must meet the ACS standard criteria. These requirements are general and applicable to organizations of any size or sector.
Being an Approved Contractor indicates that your company prioritizes client support and ensures that your private security agents deliver quality service in the areas where you choose to be evaluated.
Why ACS Accreditation is important?
The Approved Contractor Scheme (ACS) supports security businesses in various ways, enabling them to succeed in the highly competitive security industry.
ACS accreditation puts your security business on HIGH STANDARDS
Compulsory licensing ensures a certain level of staff competence, which can be effective, but it does not differentiate your business from competitors in the same market. A single incident or a staff member’s mistake in judgment can result in significant losses and damage your business’s reputation.
