Firearm Competency is not just a legal requirement. It’s a business responsibility. In South Africa’s high-risk environment, the safety of employees and clients hinges on preparedness, especially for companies that rely on armed personnel—such as private security, courier services, executive protection, or investigative teams
What is Firearm Competency?
Firearm competency refers to the certified training and testing process that ensures a person is legally allowed and practically trained to carry and use a firearm in South Africa. This competency is regulated and approved by the South African Police Service (SAPS).
Why It Matters for Your Business:
1. Legal Compliance:
Hiring unlicensed personnel puts your business at legal and reputational risk. A SAPS-recognized firearm competency certificate protects you against liability.
2. Operational Readiness:
In the field, your employees must react quickly, confidently, and safely. Competency training prepares them with essential skills and decision-making protocols.
3. Client Trust:
Clients rely on you for protection. Demonstrating your commitment to legal and safe firearm handling increases credibility and trust.
4. Employee Empowerment:
Certified training improves employee confidence, performance, and retention by investing in their professional growth.
