It is actual to elucidate the contribution of each factor to the professional competence of guards and the infl uence of these factors on their superior’s appraisal. Therefore we hypothesize that assessment of the contribution of the guard’s personal features into his professional competence and their infl uence on their appraisal by superiors will be helpful in staffi ng private security services and improving their working qualities. The object of the current study was the psychobiological and professional factors determining the professional competence of a security worker. The aim of the work was to establish the role of separate factors determining the professional competence of security workers, as well as to study the professional competence of security workers in formativeness of superior’s appraisal and psychobiological factors, qualitative indices and their analysis. The study subject was 118 security workers and their four direct superiors.Factor analysis applied for competence assessment of security workers has shown that in internal appraisal (of summarized identifi ed variables) the highest value belongs to psychic qualities (22%) as well as age and physical development (20%), followed by physical preparedness (16%), professional activity (15%), theoretical and practical preparedness (14%) and fi ghting abilities (13%). The (external) appraisal by security service superiors, when only the observation and questioning methods are applied, are not suffi ciently informative and reliable. The factor of the-oretical and practical preparedness has been found to have a similar weight both in external and internal appraisal, however, a number of factors, such as psychic qualities, physical preparedness and fi ghting abilities, in internal and external appraisal have a cardinally opposite value.Keywords: security service, competence, factors.

Decision Making Model

This study seeks to identify the most important criteria for selecting private security service providers, specifically manned guarding. Previous research on provider selection has been generic focusing on multi-criteria model decision development, but not on the previous stage where industry related criteria should be identified. Given that manned guarding is a service that affects our daily lives, it is important to focus attention on this area of activity. Selecting a private security service provider should therefore be a process in researchers’ agenda. We contribute to the literature by identifying relevant criteria in manned guarding provider selection and by using a methodology than can be applied in other industries to identify sensitive criteria besides traditional factors (eg. price, quality, delivery). We gathered a panel of 15 experts in this field to apply Delphi method by gathering their opinion in ordering the most important criteria to select manned guarding service providers.Results shows price as the most important criterion, but it was closely related to the professional experience of the operations managers (supervisors and directors), the geographic location and the financial stability of the companies.
