By The Pandemic and the Security Agency
We are already aware that our country is in middle of the third wave. As a responsible Security Agency, Chaukas aims at the safety of its clients as well as its workforce. Coronavirus has caused immense disruption, be it the local communities or global chains. Offices shutting down and work from home gaining momentum. But as we try to sustain and align our lifestyle according to the new normal, we witness the opening up of malls, educational institutions, healthcare facilities and local markets.
Security Guards are frontline workers and have played a major role in the fight against the pandemic. On one hand, one might think that their demand will decrease with most of the sectors going digital, security professionals will always be required even if it is in less numbers. On the other hand, their responsibilities have doubled. Now, they are doing much more than protecting property and goods, maintaining decorum, preventing vandalism or shoplifting.
- Monitoring the visitors and checking their belongings.
- Making sure that everyone wears masks and carries sanitisers.
- Regular temperature checks.
- Ensuring social distancing within the premises.
- Escorting individuals who are symptomatic and maybe potential virus carriers.
- Monitoring hygiene and cleanliness of the surroundings.
- Prevent overcrowding and maintaining queues while entering a public place.
Above listed are some of the main protocols followed by the employees of Chaukas Services during the pandemic.
Before entering any premise, the security guards are the first ones who you encounter. Now imagine the number of people they have to keep a check on for the entire day. Even if the premise is shut down, even if there are no people to monitor, a security guard is always appointed to look after it.
They are putting their life at stake to ensure our safety especially in public places such as shopping centers and institutions. They are more prone to the virus. Because of this, there will also be a need for back-up security. The COVID-19 Pandemic had a devastating impact worldwide and it is not over yet. We strive to follow all the precautions to keep the risk of transmission at bay.
