    Co-Authors: John T Brobst
    Abstract:

    An effective Security Supervisor needs the knowledge and ability to supervise. However, he or she also needs to know how to create and utilize specific tools to help in the supervision process. One of the most significant tools a Supervisor has at his or her disposal is the policy and procedure manual. This chapter discusses the differences in policies, procedures, and rules, as well as the importance of pre-planning to determine if a policy or procedure is necessary. The chapter also focuses on how to effectively write, implement, distribute, and maintain policies and procedures for an organization.

  • the Security Supervisor s role
    Effective Security Management (Sixth Edition), 2016
    Co-Authors: Charles A Sennewald, Curtis Baillie
    Abstract:

    This chapter focuses on the role played by a Security Supervisor in the Security Department, his or her relationship with those higher and lower in the organizational structure, his or her responsibilities, and the general principles of supervision. Supervision has been defined as the task of getting work done according to management where its ultimate goal is performance. The effective Supervisor ensures the performance of his or her subordinates by constant inspection. The most effective managerial style in the inspection process is to find those tasks that are done properly, acknowledge and give credit for good performance in such areas, and then point out deficiencies in an objective fashion. He or she should be sensitive to individual employee differences in providing both criticism and encouragement. This Supervisor must have commensurate authority to carry out his or her responsibilities. The Supervisor acts as a vital link between the employee and Security management by representing management's needs and views to those below while at the same time representing the needs and views of his or her people up to management. Failure to discharge this function objectively and faithfully, in a timely manner, can lead to disastrous results. Important principles of effective supervision are limited span of control and unity of command. The latter principle is not violated by functional supervision, which is exercised over employees only temporarily under a Supervisor's control. Perhaps the most common shortcoming in the Security industry is the failure to properly prepare and equip new Supervisors with the tools to discharge their important responsibilities. Providing adequate training for new Supervisors in the form of a workshop, seminar, or training session can inspire confidence in both the Supervisor and his or her subordinates.

  • Dupe Checklist System: Instructor's Guide for Security Supervisor Initial Training.
    1996
    Co-Authors: J L Fobes
    Abstract:

    Abstract : The Resolution Procedures Training Program is an integral element of the Dupe Checklist System. The training program currently includes the following documents: (a) Resolution Procedures Manual (RPM); (b) Instructor's Guide for Security Supervisor Initial Training; (c) Instructor's Guide for Security Supervisor Recurrent Training Guide; (d) Train The Trainer (TTT) Self-Study Resource Material; and (e) Video presentation: Passenger Interview. The documents (except the TTT Self-Study Resource Material) have been designed for classroom training of air carrier Security Supervisors and Passenger Service Agents (PSA). The documents may also be used for training of other air carrier employees, such as skycaps and special services personnel, who provide direct ground services to passengers. Additionally, in accordance with the air carrier's FAA-approved Security Supervisor training program, selected portions of the training material may be provided to trainees (Security Supervisor class participants) for home study. The purpose of the Initial Training Program is to introduce the Security Supervisor to the Dupe Checklist System and its associated resolution procedures. The initial training is designed to provide the Security Supervisor with the background, knowledge and resource material required to perform interviews with passengers who provide Failed Checklist Answers (FCA) and who have not cleared through the initial questioning performed by the Passenger Service Agent (PSA). Portions of this training program will be used for the training of PSAs and, at air carrier discretion, of other personnel.

  • The Supervisor’s Role in Safety
    Security Supervision and Management, 2015
    Co-Authors: Randy W. Rowett, Christopher A. Hertig, Kevin Herskovitz
    Abstract:

    Organizations today place an ever-increasing responsibility on the protection officer, and therefore on the Security Supervisor, not only to ensure the physical Security of the facility, but also to keep a keen eye on worker safety. The goal for all workers in any industry is to go home at the end of their shift in the same condition, although more tired, in which they arrived. Monitoring fire safety, managing crisis situations and accident scenes, and ensuring Security officers are properly trained in safety requirements are important aspects in this process. This chapter shows how the Security Supervisor can play an active role in meeting client/customer needs, as well as by providing specific methods and techniques to develop strong programs that can help move any workplace forward in being more safe and secure.

    Implementing productive learning programs is a responsibility shared by Security managers, Supervisors, training instructors, and faculty at educational institutions.

This chapter addresses the major strategies, tactics, and challenges faced within the instructional arena. It is primarily from the perspective of the training instructor or Security Supervisor.
