1 Scope
This British Standard gives recommendations for the organization, staffing, operation
and management of companies providing door supervision services, whether contracted
or in-house, to licensed premises or events. It also provides recommendations to other individuals, companies, organizations
and designated premises supervisors who provide or employ door supervisors.
NOTE 1 Companies and other employers of door supervisors are advised that the recommendations in this British Standard do not necessarily fulfil the specific local authority or Security Industry Authority (SIA) requirements, and that they need to satisfy themselves separately as to their responsibilities in that respect.
NOTE 2 Guidance on the interpretation of licensed premises is provided on the SIA website.1)
