SECURITY GUARDS SELECTION PROCESS AT DMM FACILITY MANAGEMENT

As a facility management services company, one of the most important services we provide is security services.

9 times out of 10 that security service includes a security guard and that is why we take special care to hire our security guards.

The security guard selection process, as well as the security guard recruitment procedures, are not only difficult to crack at DMM but we make sure that only the finest personnel are recruited by us.

The recruitment process for hiring security guards is not that simple and can be broken down into multiple steps on how to hire a security guard.

However, in this blog, we are going to show you what is like hiring a security guard at DMM and how to avoid incompetent security guard candidates.

 

HERE ARE THE STEPS TO HIRING OUR SECURITY GUARDS

 

  • ANNOUNCEMENT

 

The announcement process for announcing a hiring drive for a security guard job for a vacant job position is different at DMM.

 

The recruitment process for security guards is quite similar around the industry which includes putting out notices in various places like a newspaper.

 

However, we never recruit first-timers.  We always do our security guard job vacancy announcements through private channels.

 

We prefer people who already have a job experience in this field and therefore our recruitment process can become much simpler.

 

We always try to prefer people who have been in law enforcement or defence backgrounds so that we know we are hiring trustworthy people who are disciplined.

 

After we have announced our recruitment drive through private channels, we give them a certain number of days to apply.

 

  • THE APPLICATION PROCESS

 

The application process for hiring a security guard at DMM is quite straightforward.  We offer both offline and online sources for them to submit their application forms.

 

However, the most difficult part for the candidates is filling out the forms because it is a lengthy form that does not take any shortcuts.

 

They can fill the form in whichever language they prefer provided that they are willing to serve a region of their language.

 

If they fill out the application form then they are given a certain period of time to make any changes to the form before it is automatically submitted to our application software and server.

 

After the applications are submitted, they go through two sets of eyes.

 

One set of eyes is an automated checker that checks for any mistakes and rejects those application forms that are filled in correctly or are incomplete.

 

After they have passed this check then it is checked by one of our chief interviewers.

 

A handful of applications are selected to be processed to the next step.

 

These applications are processed for the next step.

 

The number of selections usually depends upon how many vacancies we have.

 

  • BASIC VERIFICATION

 

There are two sets of verification processes that we follow.

 

There is basic verification as well as extensive verification.

 

Whenever we carry out the basic verification will simply check out everything that they have mentioned in the application form and this is usually checking out the documents.

 

We make sure to go through everything so that there might not be any faulty applicants.  We make sure to go through this step because it can be quite possible that unqualified people apply by forging documents.

 

After this, we make sure to check the criminal record of every applicant to make sure that they are clean and if we find out that they are ex-servicemen or defence personnel and if they have won any awards then that is also added to their application.

 

We try hiring army veterans as much as we can because not only that is a good thing but they are the most reliable people if you want to hear a security guard to protect civilians.

 

  • EXTENSIVE VERIFICATION

 

After the basic verification process is over, we start our process of extensive verification.

 

The extensive verification is done remotely where we contact each and every applicant and ask them about their skills and their work experience.

 

We ask them about their job as well as find out if they are truly that same person.

 

We make sure to ask them about technical terms and manuals that only security personnel know and make sure to also check out their communication skills.

 

Communication skills are important to our security guards because they might have to communicate with people on quite a number of occasions.

 

After they have satisfied our questions in the extensive verification we move forward with the face-to-face interview.

 

  • INTERVIEW

 

Although we cannot mention to outsiders what are the types of questions that are asked in the interview, we make sure that all our questions are there to thoroughly assess the applicant.

 

The interview questions at designed in such a way so as to bring out the actual character of the applicants.

 

So, after they have passed the extensive education process they are called randomly for interviews.

 

In the interview, there are usually 3 of our top management people who conduct the interview.

 

They are usually people with senior security backgrounds and know exactly what it is like to be a security guard.

 

We cannot divulge more about the interview process as it is company policy but we can say that we do not leave any stone unturned during the interview.

 

Only the finest people can come out of the interviews because they truly deserve to pass the interview.

 

  • MEDICAL

 

After the interview is complete things get a lot easier for our applicants.

 

We have a medical check-up in place that is modelled on the medical check-up techniques of our armed forces.

 

While regular candidates can have a difficult time passing the medical check-up, the applicants with army backgrounds easily pass the medical check with flying colours.

 

All though you might be thinking why are we being so strict and stringent with the process.

 

The simple answer to that is, it takes a lot to be the very best security service in India and we make sure that we are.

 

  • TRAINING

 

People generally do not fail the medical but they are often times when a batch has quite a few rejects.

 

If our applicants have passed the medical check-up, they are selected for the job.

 

After they have been selected, they are given a time out to settle everything and to focus their mindset on the job.

 

Then they are called for training.

 

We have an extensive training process which includes many steps which we cannot divulge here due to confidentiality reasons.

 

However, we can say that our training is not only physical but mental as well as communication skill training is also provided.

 

This was the selection process at DMM Facility Management Pvt Ltd when we are hiring a security guard.

If you are someone who is satisfied with the process then you are welcome to hire our elite security guards who are among the finest in India and will make sure to safeguard your company assets and premises with everything.

As a facility management company, we not only provide security but a lot more other services including soft and hard facility management services as well as specialist facility management services. We are the best security services company in India. Come check out the website.

PAYROLL OUTSOURCING SERVICES HELP YOU IN FOCUSING ON YOUR CORE BUSINESS

We all can agree that payroll is a hassle and it is something that cannot be ignored.

Payroll is one of the most important things that keeps a company going and yet payroll processing can take up a lot of time and resources for your company.

On top of that, you must also take care of payroll mistakes as well as ensure a good employee experience.

This means one simple thing and that is, you will be spending more time on payroll than needed instead of concentrating on your core business growth.

SO, WHAT IS THE SOLUTION?

The solution to this is rather simple and it is to hire a payroll outsourcing company that offers payroll outsourcing services.

These companies not only take care of managing payroll operations but also manage the leave management system.

Outsourcing companies provide end-to-end payroll management services that will enable your company to spend more time on your core business instead of worrying about payroll.

However, before you hire a payroll outsourcing company to offer you complete payroll solutions, you might have asked yourself, what are the benefits of outsourcing payroll services or rather why payroll outsourcing is crucial to your business?

Let us tell you how payroll outsourcing can help your business.

COST SAVINGS

Running a company is all about managing your finances diligently so that the company is never at a loss.

However, if you are to create a separate department and higher permanent employees to take care of payroll,  that will take a huge chunk out of your capital.

You will need to pay the employees equally as much as you pay your other staff members and you also have to spend money on payroll software as well as systems.

The best thing you can do right now is to hire a payroll outsourcing company to do the payroll for you.  They will not only take care of payroll but most of them also do HR and that means that they will also manage the leave management system.

CORE COMPANY GROWTH

Outsourcing your payroll services to a payroll company ensures that you will save a lot of money and time and then that money and time can be spent on the growth of your company.

Let’s say that your company is lagging in marketing, if you decide to higher a payroll services company then you do not need to hire permanent payroll staff and then you can instead use that money to hire marketing executives.

You can reallocate the saved money and focus it on growing your business and spending on the core company growth.

This may not seem like much in the short run but in the long run this will have a huge impact on how the company grows and prospers.

COMPLIANCE

Every company, no matter how big or small, must abide by a few rules and regulations and must stay compliant with a few regulations.

These are the regulations that are imposed on the company by their country of origin and if companies fail to comply then they can be levied huge fines.

So, why keep the risk and headache to yourself?

Hire a payroll services company instead because they know exactly everything about taxes and laws and regulations.

This is what they do and their core job function is to keep track of new changes in the laws as well as to file taxes and everything else.

So you can rest easy and leave out this extra bit of tension and focus your mind on how to grow your business rather than staying busy with paperwork and taxes.

SECURITY

Security is one of the key reasons why companies choose to outsource their payroll to a professional pay toll services company.

Whenever money is involved in the equation the seriousness of the aspect increases ten-fold and when it comes to payroll, it is crucial that there is no security lapse.

From encrypted data storage systems to encrypted payroll deployment processes, security is one of the key ISPs of hiring a payroll outsourcing company.

So this was the blog about how payroll services can help you concentrate your business essentials and business core. Payroll is a hassle that you should not stay worried about.

Instead, outsource your payroll to a reputable services company. We are DMM Facility Management Pvt Ltd and we are India’s fastest-growing facilities management and payroll services company. We not only do payroll but we provide every essential service required in a business.

BUILDING SECURITY CHECKLIST BY DMM FACILITY MANAGEMENT

A building security checklist is one of the most important things that security services must create.

Likewise, we at DMM Facility Management Pvt Ltd also have security checklists in place that we create before starting our security services.

We offer different kinds of services and security services is one of our most important and well-trusted services among all our facility management services.

In order to carry out the service, we have to take care of many building security audit checklists so that we are sure everything is being followed and every security protocol maintained.

Along with that we also have a building security assessment checklist as well as a physical building security checklist.

WHY HAVE A SECURITY CHECKLIST?

There are a lot of factors and different elements that are required to be fulfilled in order to have the perfect security protocol.

Having the best security management system as well as the top-grade surveillance system or even using commercial-grade locks are not enough to have the best security.

That is where our security checklist is necessary so as to prevent human errors.

All of our security checklists are there for a simple reason and that is to bring out security vulnerabilities and embolden our security practices.

Take a look at the security steps we use to make a secure building security checklist.

  • SECURITY POLICY

 

Every building must have a security policy drawn up before the security team starts providing security.

 

This is made quite before the security moves in.

 

This is exactly like doing the soil assessment before erecting a building on a piece of land.

 

In order to establish security in a building, the building must be analysed with everything in the building.

 

This security assessment includes all the risks as well as all the potential dangers that the buildings people can face.

 

Only after every detail has been analysed, is a security policy is made.

 

  • SECURITY HISTORY CHECK

 

Just like any doctor asking for the medical history of a patient, our company always asks and needs to know the security history of the building.

 

It is not that we ask for the history so that we can analyse if you want to work there or not, that is not the case as we never say no to any security service request.

 

It is because knowing the security history of the building can help us better serve security in the building.

 

During the security history assessment, we ask everything from what was the type of security being provided to the building before we started.

 

We also take note of any security lapse incidents that might have taken place in the building and if there are any flaws in the security we try to take care of those.

 

Additionally, we speak and have meetings with the staff so as to understand what are the security flaws in the building according to their personal assessment.

 

Transparency is the key to a security job and we take transparency quite seriously and that is why we need to know everything before we start security for a building.

 

  • SURVEILLANCE CHECKLIST

 

After the security history checklist is done, we start planning the surveillance.

 

We make sure to draw up a big list of every possible surveillance law and that includes blind spots as well as areas that do not currently have good surveillance.

 

We get meticulous in this process so as not to miss any area.

 

After drawing up this checklist we prepare a different checklist wherein we have all the solutions that need to be done in order to take care of all these flaws.

 

We take time in doing this because if we are to jerry-rig this now, we might have bigger problems later.

 

  • ACCESS CHECKLIST

 

Access control is one of the most important aspects of a building wherein we issue different types of access key cards and physical keys as well as authorisation to different people.

 

Not everyone has the same level of authorisation and security clearance.

 

Let’s understand this with an example, an administrative ranked person can go into the accounts section with their key card. Their keycard is different from the keycard given to the new intern.

 

The new intern’s keycard does not allow them to enter the account’s department because there is no need for them there. Although special access codes can be given if the need arises.

 

We draw up and access key card and lock checklists so as to determine what kind of staff has what level of access and security clearance.

 

After discussing if this access clearance is alright with the administration,  we issue all the security devices such as keys and key cards.

 

There are a lot of other security checklists that we do for the building and some of them are proprietary and only our clients have access to them.

If you are someone who is worried about their building’s security then we are here to help you.  We are DMM Facility Management Pvt Ltd and we have decades worth of experience in the private security sector in India and we will help you secure your premises and building no matter how difficult it is.

STEPS TO GROW A HANGING GARDEN

Hanging gardens or vertical gardens are slowly becoming quite popular in the gardening world and vertical gardens may seem like a challenge to some but they are an excellent option for you if you lack horizontal space and by that, we mean that you lack the land to grow a horizontal traditional garden.  In this blog, we will see the simple steps for you to grow a vertical garden or a hanging garden.

Select a Wall –

Select a Wall

Choosing a wall can seem difficult but it is rather quite simple.  You can practically choose any wall of your liking but you have to keep a few things in mind.  That Wall should not be connected to any important structures of the house or any building because that Wall is going to get a lot of water and stay damp from the roots holding water.  The wall should also so be facing the sunlight for most of the time of the day and this will ensure that your garden stays healthy and your plants receive abundant sunlight.  you need not worry about sweight because anyone will be able to hold a normal sized hanging garden but you must ensure that your garden is not something really big. 

Building a Frame –

Building a Frame

The next most important thing you need to do is build the frame which you can directly put on a wall.  For the frame, we would suggest that you use PVC pipes and PVC pipe elbows and make a frame.  We would suggest that you do not use metal because metal can be expensive and also the additional weight can weaken the wall and we do not suggest that you use wood because without treatment wood will start to rot quite easily.

Plastic sheeting –

Plastic sheeting

This step is quite important if you want to maintain the integrity and structural strength of the wall because prolonged exposure to water can weaken the wall and therefore, we would suggest that you have a plastic sheet backing to the frame that you just put up and this plastic sheet can be PVC sheets as well as any other construction plastic. 

Water retention –

Water retention

This is a simple step and the purpose of this step is to help your hanging garden retain water for the plants.  The simplest way to do this is to attach layers of fabric to the frame and this is the part where your plants will live on and hold water.  We would suggest that you use carpet padding as well as any other kind of thick fabric and you can attach them directly to your frame with stainless steel screws and stables and make sure that the fabric is stretched and does not have any folds or wrinkles.

Irrigation –

Irrigation

This is one of the most important steps and this is where you will set up the irrigation system for your hanging garden.  We would suggest that you do not DIY the hardware for this step as it is an important step and you need to buy your poly tubing with fittings from any irrigation supplier and you must be able to adjust the water to drip in seconds and not minutes as your vertical garden requires more water than a horizontal garden and you must be able to maintain the balance between wet and not overflowing. 

Fertilization –

Fertilization

This is an easy step once you have your irrigation system in place you can simply prepare, you’re the fertilizers you want to apply in your hanging garden and then and apply them through the water irrigation system.

Plants –

Plants

We can discuss a thousand varieties that you can put on your wall but we and other experts seem to agree that it is always in the best interest to plant native species of plants in your vertical garden because that not only blends well with the surroundings but it is also good for the plants because they are accustomed to the climate and environment.

Inserting the plants –

Inserting the plants

After you have chosen the type of plans you want to plant, you will simply need to make horizontal slits with a razor in the fabric of the frame, and make sure to not go too deep has to pierce the plastic backing.  Then you must insert the plant roots and see that no soil is there on the root and then fix the roots with staples.

 These were the few simple steps you will need to follow if you want to blend a hanging garden or a vertical garden in your home and if you are someone who is into gardening and beautification and wants to see the same thing in your business complex but you do not have the skills and manpower to do it then you can always hire us at DMM Facility Management Pvt Ltd because we have renowned gardeners that will beautify the garden complexes of your business.
