Security Services

Print
The security officer’s job in terms of responsibilities and expectations has changed beyond recognition from the days when it involved little more than looking after premises at night when all the workers had gone home.

A priority for G4S in Ghana is finding the right people to recruit and train as guards, and raising the standards of employees throughout the business.

Today we have over 1,200 guards employed by the Company, protecting property and people: gold mines, factories, commercial and retail businesses, banks, breweries, casinos, residences and many international Blue Chip companies.

Executive Protection

Our executive protection services cover a wide array of both high-profile protection, and low-profile covert security.

The personnel involved with Executive Protection are well trained in defensive driving and unarmed defensive tactics.

G4S personnel evaluate risks and threats and develop counter measures and preventative strategies, including appropriate judgment in the use of force, verbal skills and tactical techniques.

Safety on the Road

Road trips in Ghana’s less permissive and remote areas carry an inherent risk from criminal elements, particularly where those trips are regular and routine and especially to expatriates whilst in transit.

G4S services ensure secure communication strategies, pro-active surveillance detection, counter surveillance actions, and recognition of behavioural traits of potential adversaries.

Airport Reception

Aviation laws in Ghana prevent most private security companies from entering the restricted "airside" area, however G4S has built up good relationships with the Airport Authorities and can as a result obtain special permission to meet our clients at the immigration and border control point inside Katoka International Airport arrivals lounge. A G4S representative can then assist with baggage and exit formalities.

Command & Control

G4S vehicles are fitted with VHF radios to enable communications between both vehicle commanders and from the vehicles back to the G4S 24/7 Central Monitoring Station (C.M.S.) in Accra.

Vehicles will soon be fitted with the Scope real time vehicle tracking system to enable G4S to remotely monitor vehicles in transit.

Route Planning

G4S can plan a route in advance with tracking waypoints and pre-selected safe-havens for use in the event of an emergency. The progress of the trip will be monitored by a dedicated focal point in Accra available 24/7 when movements are taking place.
