Prepare accurate shift reports, incident reports, and activity logs.

Maintain a visible, professional security presence to deter theft, trespassing, disorderly conduct, and other risks.

Communicate with supervisors, site contacts, law enforcement, and emergency responders when necessary.

Follow all company policies, post orders, and legal requirements.
