Security industry

The private security industry is regulated by PSISA- The Private Security and Investigative Services Act, 2005.

August 23, 2007, PSISA was proclaimed into force in Ontario to help professionalize the security industry, increase public safety as well as ensure proper training is being given out so that the trainees are qualified to provide protective services.

April 15, 2010, PSISA introduced the Training and Testing Regulation. All security guards are now required to fulfill the mandatory requirements of said Training and Testing Regulation in order to qualify for a license.
