Frequently Asked Questions
How do I verify a NSW Master Security Licence?
You can verify a security company’s NSW Master Security Licence through the NSW Security Licensing & Enforcement Directorate (SLED) public register. Searches can generally be completed using the business name, licence number or other identifying details published by the regulator.
What do NSW Master Security Licence classes and subclasses mean?
NSW security licence classes and subclasses identify the types of security activities a licence holder is authorised to perform under the Security Industry Act 1997 (NSW). Businesses should confirm that a provider holds the appropriate licence classes for the services they require.
Does a NSW Master Security Licence cover electronic security services?
Electronic security work is regulated separately and may require specific licence classes depending on the services being performed. StateGuard holds the appropriate authorisations required to deliver its approved security services in New South Wales.
Why is it important to engage a licensed security provider in NSW?
Using a properly licensed security provider helps organisations meet procurement, contractual and regulatory requirements while ensuring security services are delivered by authorised personnel. Businesses should always verify a provider’s licensing before engagement.
How does StateGuard operate compliantly in New South Wales?
StateGuard holds a current NSW Master Security Licence and maintains the required authorisations to deliver licensed security services throughout New South Wales. Licence information is maintained in accordance with the applicable regulatory requirements.
