We just started to arm security officers last summer. All have to pass a psychiatric examination. We use the same provider our local law enforcement agency uses.
We are then requiring an annual questionnaire in TM health (Aka EHS). If they have developed any new mental health issues or we have any concerns, we will refer back to the provider for clearance.
We are not performing physical examinations.

Good afternoon everyone,
I am wondering if anyone is doing annual/periodic physicals on your armed security officers?
Thank you,
