Frequently Asked Question

Can a security guard remove a terminated employee?A security officer can escort a terminated employee from the meeting to their desk, vehicle and property line, keep the peace, and make it clear the visit is over. Guards are not police. In general they may only use the force state law allows, such as self-defense or protecting others, so if a person refuses to leave or turns violent, officers step back, document what happened and call police. Valle Services plans each termination with HR in advance so the exit stays quiet and discreet. This is general information, not legal advice; check with your counsel about your state’s rules.
