What is the one piece of ID that a Security Guard on duty is required to carry by law?

  1. Driver’s license issued in the province or country of origin

  2. A Canadian Social Insurance Card or permit to work

  3. A current passport issued in Canada or the country of the worker’s origin

  4. The Security Guard License issued to the Guard

The correct answer is: The Security Guard License issued to the Guard

The Security Guard License issued to the Guard in the province of Ontario is the one piece of ID that a Security Guard on duty is required to carry by law. This is because a licensed security guard in Ontario is legally required to have their Ontario Security Guard License on their person while on duty. The License indicates that the security guard has undergone the mandatory training and passed the required tests to perform security duties. It is issued by the province of Ontario, and it serves as the official recognition of the individual's professional capacity and eligibility to work as a security guard in Ontario. Other forms of identification, such as a driver’s license, social insurance card, or passport, while important, are not specific to the profession and do not serve as proof of a security guard’s professional qualifications.
