I've known guards who were working for both a contract company and doing security in house at another location, but I've never seen anyone employed by two contract companies at the same time. I've heard that in New York State you can not be registered with two companies but I'm not sure if this is true or it is merely the policy of most companies to not let you work for a competitor. I'd like to know if anybody has more information on this.

I knew one officer who was working for Guardsmark and Securitas at the same time. Guardsmark knew about it, but they were desperate. I don't think the DOPS would approve. However, if the opportunity presented itself, I might be tempted.Security: Freedom from fear; danger; safe; a feeling of well-being. (Webster's)

Even if you find a great site, guards, account managers, client facility managers, come and go. All it takes is one idiot to change the whole situation. Just be flexible, a team player, and try to ride out any rough spots. Sooner or later, you'll find your niche.Security: Freedom from fear; danger; safe; a feeling of well-being. (Webster's)

I got to ask why would one want to work for two security companies. Seems like a good way to get burned out. I can understand if you work for an average company you might want to make more money, but 1)typically they schedule you even on days off and 2) talk about burn out. So why take the problems you face with one company and multiply it? If money is an issue and you want two jobs why not have your second job be something completely different? just my thoughts.

As far as something different, it's just a matter of personal preference.Security: Freedom from fear; danger; safe; a feeling of well-being. (Webster's)

I dont know about State Law on working for 2 companies. Most companies I have been to forbid it though. Because they dont want to license you and have you use it at another job too."Alright guys listen up, ya'll have probably heard this before, Jackson vs. Securiplex corporation; I am a private security officer, I have no State or governmental authority. I stand as an ordinary citizen. I have no right to; detain, interrogate or otherwise interfere with your personal property-... basically all that means is I'm a cop."-Officer Ernie

I've never had that problem, with the licensing, as the state decides who gets a license, not the company.Some Kind of Commando Leader
