MANILA, Philippines - The Philippine National Police has deployed 73 private security guards to man the four gates of its national headquarters (NHQ) in Camp Crame, Quezon City in an effort to assign desk-bound policemen to the field.
Chief Superintendent Albert Supapo, Acting Director of PNP Headquarters Support Service, said guards of Right Eight Security Agency Inc. were also directed to man other camp facilities in particular to Officer’s Row Gate, Transformation Oval Parking, NHQ Lobby, NHQ Back Parking, NHQ North Wing, and NHQ South Wing.
Four security guards will serve as roving guards, Supapo said.
Supapo said that at three-day briefing was conducted two days before the formal deployment of security guards last Saturday to orient the security guards on their duties and responsibilities, location and familiarization of different areas inside camp, procedures at the gates, and standard operating procedures (SOPs) during different alert status.
The deployment of guards is rotated in three eight-hour shifts to make sure that the security inside the camp is continuous day and night, Supapo added.
The hiring of security guards is part of the PNP's effort to increase police presence in the communities by maximizing the deployment of personnel for preventive patrol and visibility operations.
