…You work for a proprietary company as explained in Exceptions. A proprietary company pays you to be their security guard.
Note to Peace Officers: Peace officers operating a security agency (business) must be licensed per the requirements of this website.

If your agency will not permit the use of agency uniforms and vehicles, you must follow the instructions below pertaining to security uniforms and vehicles.

If your agency will cover you in this security capacity, submit a written statement from BOTH your HR and Risk Management directors, in addition to all the other required application paperwork.
