Maritime and port security services

This service standard specifies requirements for quality in organization, processes, personnel and management of a security services provider and/or its independent branches and establishments under commercial law and trade as a provider with regard to port and maritime security services.
This service standard applies according to the laws and the regulations applicable in the territory of every national CEN member adopting the standard and has hence no extra territorial application.
It lays down quality criteria for the delivery of security services in and to ports and in relation to maritime activities, requested and contracted upon by public and private clients or buyers. This European Standard is therefore suitable for the selection, attribution, awarding and reviewing of the most suitable provider for port and maritime security services.
This service standard shall not apply to security services provided by private security companies that are subject to particular rules and conditions and/or related to a specific high risk situation and/or the use of heavy weapons and/or special training and/or government supervision, such as security services in relation to piracy. In case such particular rules and/or conditions do not exist at national level this service standard can apply.

Sicherheitsdienstleistungen für Seeschifffahrt und Seehäfen

Diese Dienstleistungsnorm beschreibt die Qualitätsanforderungen für Organisation, Prozesse, Personal und Management eines Sicherheitsdienstanbieters und/oder dessen unabhängige Zweigstellen und Niederlassungen als Anbieter von Sicherheitsdienstleistungen für Seeschifffahrt und Seehäfen nach dem Wirtschafts- und Handelsrecht.
Diese Dienstleistungsnorm gilt entsprechend den Gesetzen und Vorschriften der CEN-Mitgliedstaaten, die diese Norm übernehmen und wird außerhalb der CEN-Mitgliedstaaten nicht angewendet.
Sie legt die Qualitätskriterien für die Erbringung von Sicherheitsdienstleistungen in und für Häfen und im Zusammenhang mit maritimen Tätigkeiten fest, die von öffentlichen und privaten Kunden oder Käufern nachgefragt und vertraglich festgelegt werden. Diese Europäische Norm ist dementsprechend geeignet zur Auswahl, Zuordnung, Vertragsvergabe und Prüfung des geeignetsten Anbieters von Sicherheitsdienst-leistungen für Seeschifffahrt und Seehäfen.
Diese Dienstleistungsnorm gilt nicht für Sicherheitsdienstleistungen, die von privaten Sicherheitsunternehmen erbracht werden, die speziellen Regeln unterliegen und/oder mit einer spezifischen, sehr risikoreichen Situation in Verbindung stehen und/oder der Verwendung von schweren Waffen zu tun haben und/oder mit spezieller Ausbildung und/oder unter staatlicher Aufsicht stehen, wie z.

La présente norme de service s'applique dans le respect des lois et des réglementations en vigueur sur le territoire de chaque état membre du CEN adoptant la norme et n'a donc pas d'application extraterritoriale.
Elle spécifie les critères de qualité relatifs à la prestation de services de sécurité dans et à destination des ports et en relation avec les activités maritimes, demandés et contractés par des clients ou acheteurs publics et privés. La présente Norme européenne est donc adaptée à la sélection, l'attribution, l'adjudication et la revue du prestataire de services de sécurité portuaire et maritime le plus approprié.
La présente norme de service ne s'applique pas aux services de sécurité fournis par des sociétés de sécurité privées soumises à des règles et conditions particulières et/ou associés à une situation spécifique à haut risque et/ou à l'utilisation d'armes lourdes et/ou à une formation spéciale et/ou au contrôle de l'état, tels que les services de sécurité liés à la piraterie.
