  1. 5 Things to look for in Your Bar’s Security Staff Security staff is an important aspect of your bar. Traditional club security guards are known for their excellent brawling skills and intimidation factor. However, bar owners nowadays are now preferring problem-solving skills over brute force in their club security staff. If you’re looking for a professional security guard for your bar, here are the five qualities you need to look for in your staff.

  2. Although it comes across as a surprise, having a good sense of humor can go a long way in diffusing tense situations. For instance, if there’s a long waiting list for your bar, your security staffs’ wits can help keep the audience calm and patient as they wait for their turn. Be careful, however, not to rely on someone with an extremely sarcastic tone. This is likely to alienate your patrons and can cause a situation to easily escalate. A few simple one-liners are more than enough for this job. 1. Wit

  3. Any bar fight can quickly escalate and turn violent. The last thing you’ll want is for your security team to be a part of a major brawl that resulted in something worse. In this scenario, a security expert with good communication skills will prove useful. When dealing with intoxicated and potentially violent miscreants, talking to them and trying to calm them down is important. This may prove useful in calming them down and in preventing the situation from escalating. 2. Communication Skills

  4. Professional security guards have been in the business for long. They realize the importance of appearance. Experienced security guards keep a neat and clean appearance. They do not sport long hair and don’t wear necklaces and excessive pieces of jewelry. They’re very well aware that these items can be used against them in a fight. 3. Appearance

  5. Throwing people out of the bar is not the best approach to solving problems, but then again, neither is sweet diplomacy. The key is to find a balance somewhere in between. This is where professionals and amateurs differ. A good security guard is squickto analyze a situation and determine the best possible course of action. They have a variety of tools and techniques to deal with sticky situations. If you’re hiring a security guard for your bar, you should ask them on their approach to resolving common security issues at the bar. 4. Quick Thinkers

  6. Create a few scenarios and ask them how they would deal with each scenario. Some common questions you can ask them includes, ✔How will you deal with an entrant with a fake ID? ✔ A couple is engaged in a heated argument and the woman asks for help. What would you do? ✔A patron offers you a large sum of money to enter the bar without waiting for his/her turn. What would you do in such a case? ✔If you catch someone with illegal drugs in your bar, how will you deal with the culprit?

  7. A dominant presence does not necessarily mean that your guard should be bulked up. It simply means that your security staff members should be bold and confident at all times. There’s no need to hire bullies. Make sure to do some background check on your guards before hiring them. Observe them during their duty time and see how efficient they are at what they do. 5. Presence
