Be observant and take clear and detailed notes. An indictable offence is one which is considered a serious offence, such as break and enter, or theft of property over $5,000; you will have a closer look at various Criminal Code offences in the next section of this module. To "find someone committing an indictable offence" means you must catch them in the act. It is not enough to see the start of the criminal act or the end result - you must witness the act itself. - CORRECT ANSWER Indictable Offence Arrest (found committing); Section 494(1)(a) If you have reasonable grounds to believe an offence has been committed, you are permitted to arrest an individual who is running away from a person who is lawfully able to make the arrest. - CORRECT ANSWER Assisting in an Arrest of a person (while being pursued); Section 494(1)(b) As a security professional, you are acting on behalf of the property owner; therefore, you are lawfully authorized to act on the owner's behalf to arrest an individual you witness committing a criminal offence on the property or against the owner's property. - CORRECT ANSWER Property Owner or Agent of Property owner arrest authority; Section 494(2)(b) On Monday, you saw a customer steal a $6,000 ring from a jewellery store but they got away before you could arrest them. It is now Wednesday and you see the same person back at the store but they start to leave the store before the police arrive. You MAY make an arrest - s. 494(2)(b) applies because you witnessed the original offence being committed and are making an arrest in a reasonable amount of time after the offence was committed. You must call the police and report what happened on Monday. Always have a police officer make the arrest if possible - CORRECT ANSWER Arresting of a person witnessed committing a criminal offence within a reasonable amount of time after the offence was committed.; Section 494(2)(b) How to make an arrest; Section 494(3) CC - CORRECT ANSWER - Identify yourself. - Tell the person why you are arresting them. - Check for understanding. - Remove the person to a private area, if possible. - Advise the person of their rights. (Optional) - Allow the person to make their phone call, if they so choose. - Advise the person they are not obligated to say anything. - Call the police and await their arrival. Search and Seizure (Your Authority) - CORRECT ANSWER A security professional has no power in law to search persons or their property. This kind of search is considered "search with consent." While it is mandatory for the individuals to have their belongings (or even their person, in some cases) searched prior to gaining access, the person retains the right to choose not to enter the building and, therefore, the right to not submit to the search. In return, you have the right to deny them access should they be unwilling to allow the search. Search and Seizure (Arrest) - CORRECT ANSWER You may search the individual if you have reason to believe they are carrying a weapon, have evidence of the offence you witnessed (e.g., if you are working in loss prevention and you witnessed the individual stealing an item from the store), have items suggesting a means of escape, or have stolen property on them. Trespassing and Vandalism - CORRECT ANSWER While a trespasser may enter and leave a premises without causing harm, vandals leave behind destruction which is costly to the owner of the property and could potentially cause a hazard to users of the site. Again, the best action to take is to call the police, provide the information and await their arrival. You are within your rights to arrest the responsible person(s), but consider that vandalism is an act of violence, to some degree, and make your decisions with the safety of yourself and others in mind.

As a security worker authorized by the owner or lawful possessor of the property the security worker is authorized to make an arrest if he or she believes on reasonable grounds that an individual is about to enter, take, damage or destroy property without the permission of the owner or lawful possessor of the property. Reasonable grounds will be defined in a later section - CORRECT ANSWER Defense of Property Section 265 Criminal Code concerns assault. Assault occurs when one individual uses force on another individual against their wishes. Examples of force include the following: • hitting, punching • kicking • spitting • pushing/shoving • grabbing - CORRECT ANSWER Assault As a security professional, one of your main roles is to protect property. In many cases, you are protecting the property from potential theft. Theft of property may refer to the specific property you are being asked to guard (e.g., taking of building materials from a construction site) or, it may refer to the taking of items from a premises you are tasked to protect (e.g., theft of items from a car parked in a lot you are guarding). Theft is defined in Section 322 of the Criminal Code - CORRECT ANSWER Theft Individuals who break into a premises with the intent of committing an indictable offence are committing a break and enter as defined by the Criminal Code in section 348. Breaking refers to physically damaging a premises in order to enter (e.g., smashing an exterior window), or opening something which is used to cover an external or internal opening (e.g., picking the lock on a secure office). - CORRECT ANSWER Break and Enter Every one commits an offence who has in his possession any property or thing or any proceeds of any property or thing knowing that all or part of the property or thing or of the proceeds was obtained by or derived directly or indirectly - CORRECT ANSWER Possession of Stolen Property Mischief occurs when property is damaged, altered, or destroyed so that it may not be utilized or enjoyed for the purposes it was intended. Behaviours such as vandalism are included in the category of offences known as mischief. The Criminal Code also defines mischief in relation to data. For example, an individual tampering with the data stored on a computer may be committing mischief or an individual breaking into a parked vehicle may be committing mischief - CORRECT ANSWER Mischief You may use reasonable force when - CORRECT ANSWER Aiding a police or peace officer to stop the flight of a suspected criminal, to settle a disturbance, or at the officer's request • Protecting yourself or others from harm or injury (self-defence) • Stopping an individual from committing a criminal act (e.g., you see an individual attempting to crawl into a home through a broken window and you pull them back) Gaming and Liquor Act - CORRECT ANSWER While guarding access to a sports venue, you may be directed to deny entrance to any individual in the possession of alcohol. In this instance, you can refuse to allow them to enter the premises, but you are not authorized to seize the liquor. It is very important for you to communicate to the individual that they do, indeed, have a choice in the matter; however, if they choose not to dispose of the liquor, they are choosing not to enter the venue. Trespass to Premises Act - CORRECT ANSWER For the purposes of subsection (1), notice not to trespass may be given to a person (a) orally or in writing by the owner or an authorized representative of the owner, or (b) by signs visibly displayed (i) at each of the entrances normally used by persons to enter the premises, and (ii) in the case of premises referred to in section 1(c)(ii), at all fence corners or, if there is no fence, at each corner of the premises. Petty Trespass Act - CORRECT ANSWER Defines how the public may be notified as to the location of private property, or areas where trespassers are prohibited from entering. As you can see in the section below, notice may be provided orally; as a security professional, you may tell persons they are not permitted to enter a certain area. If the persons ignore the oral notice you have provided and enter the area, they are guilty of an offence under the Act Employment Standards Code and Regulation - CORRECT ANSWER As an employee, you are entitled to certain provisions, such as being paid at least minimum wage and compensation for overtime hours worked. In essence, the Code establishes the rights of workers within the province of Alberta.
