The Role of Internal Security Service in a Company

In the diploma thesis, I address internal security as an important segment of the private security system. First, I present the legal framework, which is essential for understanding the field, as all internal security activities stem from legislation. The empirical part of the diploma thesis focuses on researching employees' perceptions of the work of internal security services. Through the research, the aim was to verify how employees value their presence and effectiveness, and to determine whether they feel safer because of their work. The results showed that the majority of employees express a high level of satisfaction with the work of security personnel.

Problem

In the diploma thesis, I address internal security as an important segment of the private security system. First, I present the legal framework, which is essential for understanding the field, as all internal security activities stem from legislation. I define legal regulation as the foundation that enables companies to lawfully and effectively carry out security tasks.

In the continuation, I explain in more detail the importance of internal security in companies, highlighting why in certain cases this form of security is the most appropriate solution. I also specifically address the role of security personnel, which is a key factor in the successful execution of internal security tasks, as through direct work in the field they ensure the safety of employees, property and business processes. I particularly emphasise the importance of effective internal security, which is crucial for ensuring the safety of employees, protecting the material and intangible assets of the company, and for the overall stability of the working environment.

Various approaches to organising internal security are addressed, demonstrating how appropriate security measures can contribute to reducing internal risks, improving the working climate and increasing employees' trust in the employer. In the theoretical part, I emphasise numerous positive aspects of internal security, including greater connection of security personnel with other employees, better knowledge of the working environment and greater effectiveness in managing risks.

Solution and Method

The empirical part of the diploma thesis focuses on researching employees' perceptions of the work of internal security services.

Results

Through the research, the aim was to verify how employees value their presence and effectiveness, and to determine whether they feel safer because of their work. The results showed that the majority of employees express a high level of satisfaction with the work of security personnel. The main objective was to investigate the challenges faced by security personnel in carrying out their work, to determine how this affects the quality of security, to describe the legislation, and to define the competences and standards they must achieve.

With this, I wish to contribute to a better understanding of the importance and value of internal security in modern companies.
