Step-by-step guide on hiring a private bodyguard in Delhi-NCR
While hiring experienced staff members of a security company as your private bodyguard, the following points are an ideal place to start your research with.
- Check the background
Checking the background of a security guard is a must for all homeowners. The candidate must not have any criminal history and have an impeccable record with the law. Collect the candidate’s Aadhar card, Driver’s license (if any), Voter’s I.D, and Passport ( a suitable proof of police verification). For safety, submit a copy of all these documents to the nearby police booth. You can appoint a private investigator to carry out the candidate’s background check.
2. Experience
For the evaluation of the candidate’s competencies, prior experience is crucial. You can compare two or more candidates based on where they have worked previously. Look for letters of recommendation, references, and the reasons for leaving the previous work.
3. Personality
Select a security guard with a pleasant personality because they will meet you every time to enter and leave your residence. If you have kids at home, they will also communicate with this person or listen to them speaking. Therefore, they must never be rude or use slang language that may leave a negative impression on those around them. Although the agencies train bodyguards to be stoic for better performance, it must be clearly established that you will never tolerate any rude behavior toward the family members.
4. Salary
Salary and other benefits that the private bodyguard will get from the job depending on their skills and experience. If you want him/her to stay at your residence or office for long hours, you would have to pay a higher salary. They may also ask for bonuses and overtime as and when applicable.
5. Duty hours
Most private bodyguards work a 12-hour shift. Before appointing any candidate, discuss the work hours, lunch breaks, and tea sessions. Also, ask them to arrange for suitable coverage when they are not available.
6. Training
Most private bodyguards get training on managing emergencies like a fire, self-defense, practical ways of doing surveillance, and monitoring vehicles. Look at their training courses and certificates for a better evaluation.
7. Armed or unarmed
Most private bodyguards in India are unarmed. However, Proman Securitech can provide you with armed bodyguards too if you have any special requirements. For this, you need to get special permission from the police station in your area.
Final Words
Ensure that the bodyguard on duty is never drunk & sleepy as a moment of recklessness on their part can have disastrous consequences. They must not smoke, spit, or litter around your residence.
