What Armed Security coverage includes

Armed security is a high-hazard class, and the few carriers that write it look closely at firearms training, use-of-force policy, post types and guard licensing.

  • General liability - Injuries and damage at client sites.
  • Firearms liability - Claims from discharge or display of a weapon.
  • Assault and battery - Use-of-force claims against guards.
  • Professional liability - Failure to protect people or property.
  • Workers compensation - Injuries to armed guards on duty.

Good to know: documented annual firearms qualification and a written use-of-force policy are required by nearly every armed security market.

Not covered: intentional acts, guards carrying weapons not approved by the company, and bar or nightclub posts on many policies.
