Question: 1 / 80

During a security patrol, what should a guard be vigilant about?

Attractive merchandise displays

Unusual behavior, safety hazards, and unauthorized persons

Being vigilant about unusual behavior, safety hazards, and unauthorized persons is crucial for a security guard during a patrol. This focus ensures that the guard can identify potential threats or issues before they escalate. For instance, unusual behavior might indicate criminal activity or a need for immediate intervention, while safety hazards could pose risks to both employees and customers, necessitating prompt action to mitigate them. Monitoring for unauthorized persons helps maintain security protocols and protect property from theft or vandalism.

In contrast, while attractive merchandise displays are important for business operations, they are not typically within the scope of a security guard's responsibilities during a patrol. Weather conditions and scheduled events are relevant but generally do not directly relate to the immediate security concerns that need attention. Furthermore, evaluating employee performance and punctuality falls outside a guard’s key duties, as their role is primarily focused on security and safety rather than workforce management.
