Why Your Armed Security Guard Clients Need Workers’ Compensation
Your clients in the armed security industry have an important—and sometimes dangerous—job! While working to protect others in areas like stores, banks, and hospitals, your clients in the armed security guard industry face many on-the-job risks.
For your armed security guard industry clients, some common industry risks include:
- Violence, which can occur from incidents like armed robberies or altercations
- Slip-and-falls, which can occur during an altercation or when a security guard is patrolling an area and comes across a risk like a slippery hospital walkway or debris on the floor of a warehouse
- Repetitive motion injuries, like carpal tunnel or back injuries, which can occur when an armed security guard performs similar motions throughout the day
- Traffic accidents, which can affect armed security guards who use a vehicle to patrol an area, or who work in or near a high-traffic area
If they encounter on-the-job risks like these, your clients in the armed security guard industry can suffer from a wide variety of injuries, ranging from broken bones and minor sprains to serious and even life-threatening injuries, like gunshot wounds, traumatic brain injuries, and paralysis.
