KeyPlus Security Jobs & Employee Support Programme
At KeyPlus, we pride ourselves on the safety and wellbeing of our employees…
We have several initiatives to support, develop and assist you in your role.
These are intended to benefit you for your own safety and wellbeing, both in and out of working time and enable you to take pride in delivering the best possible service to our clients. We are also an advocate of improving the perception of Security Jobs within the industry.
Here are just a few initiatives:
Living Wage Foundation
KeyPlus is a Living Wage Employer.
The real Living Wage is based on the cost of living and is voluntarily paid by more than 4,000 UK employers who believe a fair day’s work deserves a fair day’s pay.
In April 2016 the government introduced a higher minimum wage rate inspired by the Living Wage campaign – even calling it the ‘national living wage’. However, the government’s ‘national living wage’ is not calculated according to what employees and their families need to live. Instead, it is based on a target to reach 60% of median earnings by 2020. Under current forecasts, this means a rise to less than £9 per hour by 2020. The real Living Wage rates are higher because they are independently-calculated based on what people need to get by.
Fleet and Personal Safety
We have fleet management systems for personal safety and best practice.
As lone workers, we appreciate our responsibility to keep you safe at all times so you are well equipped with a fleet management system and personal safety devices.
We have our own KeyPlus liveried fleet of vans, fully equipped, serviced and managed to keep you safe all year round.
Continuous Training & Development
We provide continuous training opportunities in both practical skills and theory.
We want to ensure you are confident and alert in your job at all times, so we support you with personal development and continuous training opportunities.
From conflict management and fire risk awareness to the latest technologies and personal communication, we are with you all the way.

KeyPlus is an SIA Approved Contractor for quality and protection.
The objective of the SIA’s Approved Contractor scheme is to raise performance standards and to assist the private security industry in developing new opportunities.
The scheme is voluntary and was developed in consultation with representatives from across the industry.
At KeyPlus we strive to be the best in the security industry and take our SIA Approved Contactor award seriously.
