Superior Security Services Are Vital During COVID-19

To ensure safety for all in our society during COVID-19, superior security services are fundamental for public places.

In nearly two years of battling COVID-19, millions of lives have been lost worldwide, even more have been hospitalized, and people have to live with anti-epidemic rules and measures. Thailand had to grapple with an increasing number of infection cases in recent months, despite earlier success in keeping the pandemic at bay with effective health control measures. 

Having gone through four unofficial and official lockdowns, Thais should be congratulated for complying with health control measures and paying much more attention to health and safety than ever. The public venues that maintain stringent and effective health control measures such as body temperature screening, social distancing, cleaning and disinfection at all touch points are the ones that gain users’ confidence. 

How important are security services during COVID-19?

Bangkok statistics show that the highest COVID-19 infection rates are recorded among merchants/sellers, office employees, construction workers, factory workers and general workers. Most patients are at working age with high exposure to infection in their workplaces or the places they visit. Unaware they are infected, they may spread the virus within their families and the community. Self-care is the best way to prevent infection. More than that, public venues should implement preventive measures.

Busy locations such as hospitals, department stores, malls, airports, event venues, factories and companies, in particular, must carry out strict public health control measures such as screening, body temperature checking and visitor registration for precautionary control.

When there are no security guards enforcing public health control measures, there might be gaps for new infectious clusters to form. Therefore, it is necessary for all companies and all places that have a large number of users to have security guards taking charge of initial screening of users and ensuring everyone entering a venue follow the measures strictly for the safety of themselves and others.

Screening

Guardforce security guards are the first to greet users in a venue and to screen people entering for COVID-19 infection risks. Screening methods are adapted for individual locations to meet the needs of customers. For instance, security guards could stop people with a body temperature of 37 degree Celsius or above from entering.

Recording users’ entry time and duration through check-in applications or record books can help with the timeline investigation of targeted users if there is an infected case to trace. Security guards can facilitate the process and offer an identification such as a sticker to indicate an individual has undergone proper screening. Security guards can also make sure visitors sanitize their hands with alcohol gel at service points.

Maintaining social distancing

To comply with the Ministry of Public Health’s social distancing standard of keeping 1.5 to 2 meters  apart, Guardforce security guards serve as facilitators ensuring people maintain safe physical distancing in public areas such as airport seats or check-in points for passengers.

Guardforce security guards also control the number of users as determined by the safe capacity for each location, at around four square meters per person, to prevent over-crowding.
