  1. 48hrs! Extra underwear?! Guys! Ok now I understand. I believe for sure they are to be treated as contractors since their duties are different from the companies they work for.

  2. I’ll tell you how it affects young kids. No school work reinforcement, no patience, no quality time and attention. Possibly outward frustration, short temper and neglect towards the kids.

  3. I did know what I was signing up for when I signed the contract where the long hours are concerned… But my issue is this It has been years now and none of these union didn’t see it fit to fight for our rights and to know that we were indeed employees and not no dam contractors, and this is what hurts

    1. Dont pay no union dues then dem a thief because they could let u know that u entitled to benefit and such likes

    2. @Jacqueline Robinson it’s has been like this for years and no one turns a blind eye to the profession and says security deserves better none

  4. Dionne i salute you….i was a security in thàt same company and i suffered at their hand…when you talk about
    Nephrotism
    Fren and company
    Sabotage
    Disrespect of gaurds by management
    Pay shortage when the money already mawga….you check these people…
    ..gayurds just gwaan hol it but when you do decide to leave please go to ministry of labor so youcan collect you leave money..whether you took the leave or not you are entitled to get pay for it….memba dat
    I would also advise you …if you in this company for over ten years …leave,collect your money and join a different one dont bedevoted an sit down with them til you die….PLEASE….

  5. What marks man doing now u have to pay for training as a new security officer is the managers pay them must cut for they are not doing nothing to the company only sit in office drinking coffee

  6. The 1st time in all the years I see where security officers were ever notice was during covid lock down when a only security dem a call pon to protect business places and to get certain things done …dem no see we dem no know we

  7. A eight hour shift with proper pay is the right way and overtime payed at an approved rate for too long these companies have been getting away with this kind of workers abuse

  8. It’s the worst system ever they treat guard like there are nobody they need to do better they show guard no respect it’s all about there friends and company double standards towards other guards it’s just the worst ….nepotism’s long hours no pay with leaves no vacation pay if you don’t work you don’t get pay it’s so inhumane security officer need better the government really need to look into this like seriously

  9. At least someone talk about security officers I know how this feels I have been there done that I take way my self because of the treatment of the company I love my job but the treatment the less pay it don’t work out single mother no and most of them want to have sex with you before you can get some a type of location I can go on and on this not going anywhere trust me I was in it for over 15th years

  10. These men are crazy, you should always rally for getting benefits, you can a part time job somewhere else, if something to happen and you can’t go to work at least your getting paid, get a side hustle even if you’re in a good job nowadays you need a side hustle..

  11. Most of the time reasons for they working 48 hours or more is because other officers are fed up of the situation not getting paid on time and all the slackness we have to put up with by these companies when u check out you Taxes they drew for paying over nothing paid over

  12. I was in Atlas for 6 years and currently I have tax admin calling me about me owing tax and money was drawn out from my salary and nothing paid over.
