If the company cannot show a current Master Licence, stop. Everything else is a briefing problem.
New South Wales treats security as a licensed trade. Crowd control, static guarding, patrols and most event work sit under the Security Industry Act 1997. The company needs a Master Licence. Each operative needs the right Class 1 subclass for the task.
OnGuard Protection holds Master Licence 000110094. Check it on the SLED public register before you send a site map. Then ask three questions: which class is on the roster, who writes the brief, and who you call at 02:00 if the post fails.
A good brief names the suburb, the hours, the asset, and the risk. “Need two guards Saturday” is not a brief. “Nowra rodeo, gates from 10:00, crowd estimate 4,000, radio to first aid” is a brief. We build that in the quote form so the roster matches the job.
Same-day cover is possible along the Sydney–Hunter–South Coast–Canberra spine. Planned work is cheaper and safer. Call 0432 893 343 and we will tell you the same day whether we can stand the post.
Takeaways
- Verify the Master Licence on the SLED register
- Match Class 1A, 1C or other subclasses to the task
- Write hours, suburb, crowd and access into the brief
- Name an after-hours contact on both sides
