Frequently asked questions

What is keyholding in security services?

Why is keyholding important?

What is the employer's legal obligation when the keyholder is an employee?

To alleviate this responsibility, it is recommended to use a professional keyholding service that provides 24/7 availability and professional expertise, offering greater security for both employers and employees.due to
