Security guards who fail to maintain safety can be held civilly liable by the courts

True
False
Unknown
Situational

The correct answer is: True

The statement is true. In Ontario, as well as in many jurisdictions worldwide, security guards have a responsibility to maintain safety. If a security guard fails in this duty, they may be held civilly liable in court, for instance, in the event of an injury taking place because of their negligence or failure to act professionally and responsibly. This means the injured party could sue the security guard for damages. The civil liability refers largely to financial penalties or compensation that the court may order the security guard to pay the injured party. This serves to hold security guards accountable for their conduct and actions, and imposes a legal duty on them to perform their role properly to maintain safety.
