Top 4 Safety and Security Issues That Hotel Industry Face Every Day

Updated: Mar 10, 2022

In the hotel industry, security can be a difficult subject to deal with. There are a lot of security considerations to keep track of to ensure the safety of guests, visitors and employees. Furthermore, hotel grounds are typically larger, making it more difficult for personnel to cover every area while ensuring guest satisfaction.


When a guest checks into a hotel, he or she does have the impression that their things will be safe and secure during their stay. At the same time, it's critical that the hotel's employees and assets are safe and secure as well. As a result, having a comprehensive Safety and Security plan in place is critical.


We are one of the top-rated companies that offer standard quality hotel security guard services in Orange County. Secursolution has provided experienced security staff for over 17 different brands of Hotels in Southern California.



We’ve compiled a list of the top four safety and security challenges that hotel facilities face every day-


#1. Unauthorized Visitors


Having security agents stationed at your entrances and upgrading to the most up-to-date surveillance cameras and equipment aids in proper building and traffic monitoring.


#2. Burglaries and Auto theft


Hotels must have controlled access to their parking structure. If the parking structure is a wide open area, then Hotel Management should consider providing their guests with parking permits to be displayed at all times while parked at the hotel and have security officers patrol the open parking lot on a regular basis. Theft and auto burglary may be prevented in your hotel with proper surveillance, good lightning and unobstructed visibility, access control, and security guards regularly patrolling the parking areas. Security officers function as both a deterrent element and as crime prevention. It's also important to upgrade your security systems.


#3. Physical Crime


Of course, crime varies from one property to another. Authorities and security experts, on the other hand, have noticed a general increase on a global scale. Physical crime can range from professional burglaries to hotel room drug slips employing clever social engineering skills. Hotel holdups involving firearms have increased at night because they are easily accessible and less protected than other industries that operate at night. With the rise in drug use and the current economic downturn, this form of crime is likely to rise.


Terrorism, which includes the use of weapons and the contempt for human life, is a significant danger to global security. We must realize that incidents can occur at any time, anywhere in the world, and that no one can foresee when or where the next attack will occur. Having professional and well trained security guards on hand can limit your exposure to many security challenges that may arise at your Hotel property.


#4. Major Security Event And Loss Of Competitive Advantage


Complacency is a real threat to the business, its guests, and its employees. The costs of recovery after a security incident, including media attention, are frequently substantially more than the cost of security and risk management.


The worst-case scenario following a large security breach is obviously lost revenue while the property is closed for investigation and/or restoration. While your repair expenditures are still running, the competition will pick up your business and profit from it.


Remember that the reputation of your Hotel Brand is the most valuable asset that necessitates its own security plan in today's highly competitive industry, where guests prefer to make their booking decisions online.
