What purpose is a security guard’s notebook?

To add additional information on potential suspects collected during your shift
To keep track of people, stolen property, details of person you believe are future suspects
A daily record of arrests and covert activities during a shift
A daily record of factual events and activities during a shift

The correct answer is: A daily record of factual events and activities during a shift

The primary purpose of a security guard’s notebook is to maintain a daily record of factual events and activities during a shift. This means jotting down all the happenings during their shift, including incidents, visitors, suspicious activities, and daily routine checks. It's crucial in maintaining transparency and accountability and can serve as evidence in court. The other options mention recording suspicions, arrests, stolen property, or covert activities, all of which do not necessarily fall into the guard's jurisdiction or may not be based on factual and verifiable events. Hence, the purpose of a security guard's notebook is essentially to document a genuine, factual record of their shift.
