The British Security Industry Association (BSIA) has warned UK Facilities Managers that the Private Security Industry Bill will cause confusion when it becomes law in April 2001, according to a report in workplacelaw.net. Under the Bill, all security officers, managers, directors, and partners of contract manned security companies must have a security license, but in-house security guards are exempted. The BSIA warns that individuals unable to secure a license may look for in-house employment, and that one facility may employ licensed guards while another, similar facility employs unlicensed ones.
