Does a licensed PPO need to obtain a Guard Registration to work as a guard themselves?

A licensed Private Patrol Operator (PPO) does not need to obtain a separate Guard Registration to work as a guard themselves. The rationale behind this is that the PPO license encompasses the authority to operate as a security provider, which typically includes the ability to employ guards and perform guard duties without needing to hold an additional guard registration.

This system is designed to streamline operations for PPOs, allowing them to manage their personnel and provide security services without the redundancy of requiring further qualifications for roles they are authorized to oversee. Thus, the correct answer reflects the understanding that a PPO's license already encompasses the necessary permissions to carry out guard responsibilities.
