Reserve Officers fill in when regularly assigned personnel are absent or when additional staffing is required. Unlike traditional security posts, Reserve Officers do not have fixed assignments or schedules. Instead, they are scheduled for reserve windows—specific time blocks during which they must remain reachable and available to accept work assignments if contacted by the company.

Essential Duties and Responsibilities Remain reachable by phone or text during assigned reserve windows. Respond promptly to coverage requests and travel directly to assigned client sites when dispatched. Perform all standard security officer duties while on post, including: Conducting patrols and access control Monitoring premises and deterring unauthorized activity Responding to incidents and preparing accurate incident and shift reports Providing professional and courteous customer service to clients and visitors Maintain communication with dispatch or site supervision during active assignments. Accurately complete timekeeping and post activity reports. Comply with all company policies, safety standards, and client requirements. Note: Reserve Officers are not required to remain on company premises or restrict personal activities during reserve windows, provided they can respond within the designated response time when called. Work Schedule Reserve windows are typically scheduled in 2-hour blocks aligned with company check-in times (e.g., 06:00–08:00 or 13:00–15:00). Officers may accept or decline reserve windows based on availability. If not called during a reserve window, no work is performed, and no hours are logged.
