Ive used them back and forth. When I was doing Security patrols for an International Port I called myself a "Security Patrol Officer". However usually I will just use either term that I feel fits the occassion more. I think they are interchangable and I dont mind which is used.
It seems strange to me to call yourselves Public Security when you are working in Private Security??? Unless like the ones here in Montreal or mentioned in other posts, where you are working for hospitals or universities etc.
Be careful with that one. You tell someone you're a Public Safety Officer here and they'll think you're a sworn police officer working at a university or a sworn police officer/firefighter working for a municipal Public Safety Department.
Agreed. Before I retired from the FD if someone were to tellme they were a "Public Safety Officer" my first question would have been "Which Department?" When they answered as some security firm I would have called the PD. There are some things you do not call yourself.

In Wisconsin, we ARE ALLOWED to use 'Public Safety'.
My partner, 16 years ago when he started his first company, was the first one to use the words "Public Safety" in the company name here in WI.
I never liked the word "security". I prefer "Public Safety" officer.
