SIA DOOR SUPERVISOR CHANGES | OCTOBER 2021 | UK

Do you know about the recent changes to the SIA licence requirements?

As of October 2021, the Security Industry Authority has announced new requirements for those looking to get their Door Supervisor license, as well as for Door Supervisors and Security Guards that wish to renew their SIA licenses, there will be additional training required to ensure that they are meeting the new industry standards.

These changes have been introduced to improve the private security industry and the skills required within the roles; including managing new potential risks, changes caused by new technology, or recent events like COVID-19.

I've been a Security guard for 18 years, and these changes are a joke!
I've no objection to being trained at my place of work, but having to pay £99.00 for a First aid course that was always free in the past, and £86.00 plus for top up training, on top of the cost for licence renewal, as well as an exam and for what? a job that has always been known for paying a minimum wage, LMAO
No it's just an excuse for money spinning on the governments and S.I.A's part.
I'm letting my licence expire and leaving the industry, but it's not rocket science that these financial changes will put small security companies out of business.

So wait your telling me you’ve now got to pay for first aid training. You also have to pay for an upskilling course and then pay for renewal itself basically your now paying over £450 for renewal when it was initially £220 is that what is happening here?

I’ve been a security officer for 15 years and I think this new training is bullshit, I’ve already earned my license, I don’t need to retrain to regain it, once you get your license that’s it. I don’t need first aid where I work, I’m on my own, there’s nobody on this site. A complete waste of time and more money out of my insufficient wagers. This is just a way to make more money for the sia, the license renewal should be every 5 years not 3, this new training should be for new people who are trying to get there license not for seasoned officers like me. Not happy.

Is top up training required every 3 years

[joeking]

have to say these new regulations have firmly pushed me away from even considering working in the industry.feel bad for the guy's who have been in the sector for any period of time.this job has 0 appeal.

[gbone]

Businesses are actually worried about this we have guys who just do 20hrs a week because their semi retired most will not renew their badge because of this a lot of guards are going to leave specially the guys who only get a few hours

I am from Pakistan is there any chance I can get a sia license ?
