Customer Service Approach

At Blackbird Security, we understand the need for sensitivity in public settings. We frequently work alongside local police, RCMP task force and crime squad liaisons on collaborative approaches to ensure the safety of those who frequent the public spaces we protect. As part of our government security training program, each guard undergoes Occupational First Aid (OFA) training, conflict resolution training, trauma informed training and intercultural communication training. Not only will our guards provide world class security services, they’re also a welcoming, customer-service oriented presence in your space.

Blackbird Security has been performing the role of safety ambassadors for the City of Duncan since the summer of 2019. In this role, they have helped provide a safety presence along the Trans-Canada corridor. Their staff have been professional, reliable and on time. They cover all shifts including any time one of their guards is sick. They are quick to respond to calls and available anytime during the day/evening. I recommend them to anyone looking for professional security guards.
