Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between an employer and a security company?
An employer is any organization that hires security professionals. A security company provides contract-security services to clients. Some contract-security companies appear in both directories because they are service providers and employers.
Does an employer listing mean the organization is currently hiring?
No. Hiring status and job openings change frequently. Individual employer profiles will link to current public listings when openings can be verified.
Will every employer require Oregon DPSST certification?
Requirements depend on the employer, job title, and duties. Review the individual posting and confirm certification requirements directly with the employer.
How can an employer update its profile?
Use the Oregon Security Guide contact page to request a correction, add public hiring information, or suggest an official careers link.
