Nightclub and Bar Security

Anyone who has been to a bar, pub, casino or nightclub knows there is always a line with someone checking you at the door. While some may find bouncers to be annoying, their job ensures that everyone entering is safe and legally allowed to be there. Being a bouncer comes with many responsibilities and can be dangerous work too.

With the rise in violence in clubs, bars and other tourist and nightlife attractions, it has become more of a business need than a liability to hire bouncers. This means that regulations and certifications are the standard, and not a preference when hiring. UK regulations require that anyone whose job involves guarding licensed premises must hold a Door Supervisor Licence.
