Security Manager

The Loss Prevention Certification Board (LPCB part of BRE Global) sets the standards needed to ensure that fire and security products and services perform effectively. LPCB’s Loss Prevention Standards (LPS) are applied in fire and security sectors around the world.

The Loss Prevention Standard (LSP 2082 : Issue 1.0), published by BRE Global in 2017, defines security manager(s) as: ‘A security role appointed by the Responsible Person(s) or Employer Representative(s).’

Where the responsible persons(s) is:

‘The person(s) holding ultimate responsibility for facility security. They can be identified as:

• the person(s) in control of the facility (as occupier or otherwise) in connection with the carrying on by him of a trade, business or other undertaking (for profit or not); or
• the owner(s), where the person(s) in control of the premises does not have control in connection with the carrying on by that person of a trade, business or other undertaking.

It distinguishes between the facility security manager and the project security manager. For more information see: facility security manager and the project security manager.
