The 2024 Annual Guarding Report: Navigating the Changing Weather
December 5, 2024
Security executives and guarding companies identify trends in security guarding throughout 2024, from political, climate-related challenges, violence, and theft.
Workplace violence, civil and political unrest, property crimes, and weather-related challenges are all on the plate of guarding companies and their clients, who must respond with the right training, equipment and technology, and hiring and retention initiatives to ensure they keep people and assets safe and secure.
The Archers-Daniels-Midland Company (ADM), which mostly uses GardaWorld Security in North America but a variety of other companies around the world, has experienced an increased need for guards to handle hostile incidents and has deployed greater training in certain hot spots, such as Ukraine and Israel, says Brian Howell, vice president and global head of security.
“We’ve also seen an uptick in the burden that’s put on guards for emergency management—evacuations of sites, that type of thing,” he says. “We’ve slowly aligned and gotten that verbiage into the post orders. They’ve adapted very well.”
