Griffin Security currently deploys a total number of approximately 500 security personnel in its ongoing projects. Besides the standard procedures for examining the skills of the employee, all guards working for Griffin have to pass a security specific background check. This background check, depending on the deployment and job location, may entail background checks with political security, the police and the sheik of the tribe the employee is affiliated to. Especially in areas where tribal politics and tribal issues are potentially a subject of concern, “endorsements” and “written guarantees” for the behaviour and performance of indivudiuals have prooven to be a valuable tool in order to ensure loyality and full compliance with company rules and regulations.

Griffin Security draws on a roster of already trained and skilled security officers with different skill-sets. The company ensures to assemble a strong team of skilled guards to perform the duties as per the specific requirements of each client.
