Who are the highest paid security guards?

Question

Who are the highest paid security guards?

Answer 1

Pay scales for guards differ  with varying  employers, with different industries and in different parts of the country. However, the average initial  wages for guards with little or no experience are minimum wage to $12.00 an hour. Wages for experienced guards are $12.00 to $19.50. Armed guards are the ones who mostly  earn more money than unarmed guards. Fees paid to guard services vary from about $25 to $30/hr for a regular trained guard up to $40 to $50/hr for an armed guard.

Answer 2

Most armed guards get $10-$18 per hour depending on the location or contract. The highest paid guards are usually contractors with the Federal Government. In Alameda County an armed guard on federal facility currently is $30 per hour not including other benifets the Federal Government benifits that contract companies must pay their employees. I am a supervisor and after my base pay and benifites plus Captains pay I top out at $40 per hour. Not to mention if I work over 8 hours in a day I get time and a half extra added to my base pay. Check out the Department of Labor and Wages for exact pay wages in your county. I think Alameda County is the highest in Califonia. Some of the sites in Alameda County that pay these wages are: The Coast Guard Island, any Federal Court House, Oakland Airport Control Tower, The FAA in Fremont and just about any other facility controld by the Government.

Guest6023- is correct the one's you have never heard of. But if you look up some of the links I have left you will find some. Fair warning though you better have a rocking credintials.

Guest5914- Your ignorance speaks for itself. Maybe we are a joke but we train a lot more in depth then the regular soldiers. No disrespect to the grunts we respect out brothers. Most of the people who do this are SpecOps types or former S.W.A.T.
So when you call us jokes it is cool. Because we make more in two months than you do in a year.
