Security Job Questions, Answered

Do I need a security licence to apply?

Yes — both roles require a valid Alberta Security Services Worker Licence. If your licence is still in progress, apply anyway and tell us where you are in the process: Alberta Basic Security Training (ABST) is a 40-hour course with an 80% exam pass mark, and we hire strong candidates as they complete licensing.

What does a security guard job in Calgary pay at Guard Tower Security?
