In Alberta, businesses that offer security, investigation, locksmith and automotive lock bypass services, or training for these jobs, must be properly licenced.
Licences are issued under the Security Services and Investigators Act by Alberta Justice and Solicitor General.
Businesses are responsible for ensuring they comply with Security Programs policies by:
- creating internal policies
- ensuring uniform and vehicle appearances
- keeping records
- reporting
- incidents
- new hires
- terminations
