The most important consideration for hiring security for the movie set is that the company providing the personnel in question must be licensed by the Security Industry Authority (SIA).
It is also important to check the kind of insurance possessed by the security company. Ideally, the security company to be hired will possess public and employers’ liability insurance going up to £10M.
The security personnel must also be capable of providing protection for the location and the studio. Should the need arise for crowd control and dog patrols, the security personnel must also be able to provide those services.
Security issues specific to the filming location must also be considered when hiring personnel.
