Security Worker – Download Forms and Guide
Overview
All the forms required to get and keep a Security Worker Licence are listed below with a short description. It is extremely important that all applicable fields in the forms be completed and that all required documentation is enclosed with all applications sent to the Registrar. Forms that are not completed correctly or fully, missing documents and fee payments that are incorrect or not provided could mean your full application package may be returned unprocessed. No refunds of fees are given. Therefore, the importance of understanding the process and the forms is critical.
Getting and Keeping Your Licence – Guide
Please download the guide, “Getting and Keeping your Security Worker Licence” which will provide you with valuable assistance when going through any of the processes —
- First-time application for a security worker licence
- Renewal of your current licence
- Updating your licence information or records held by the Registrar, and
- Replacing your licence should it become lost or stolen.
You can download and print the full guide or just the pages you need. The guide explains all the necessary steps you need to take before you apply, lists the training and proof of qualifications required, has a quick checklist to help you decide if you are ready to apply, describes all the documentation you need to send in, where to get forms, how to complete them, and how to submit your application packages. Remember: sending in an application package that is incomplete in any way will delay the process — your package may be returned to you unprocessed.
