Introduction

This document describes the common terms used in the standards that are produced or maintained by

the CEN/TC 439 “Private Security Services”. The goal is to ensure that the users/readers of the CEN/TC

439 standards understand the common terms they face while reading the standards.

Terms that are specific to individual sectors will be defined within that sector standard.

While private security is regulated by legislation in each country, there is a growing need for the use of

common terminology and concepts.

This document is the second edition. There are two main changes compared with the first edition. Firstly,

the structure has been changed. Secondly, several terms are added. This edition comes with an

introduction and two new subclauses. These clauses contain the sector specific terms from the maritime

and airport subject areas. As more sector-specific standards are published, this standard will need to be

reviewed accordingly.
