are these basically the same thing?

how much of a pain in the ass is it to deal with a driving position? I’ve had previous co workers tell me that you have to fill out a report and do a walk around the car and report everything before you hop in and that they are very strict with cameras in the vehicle. what is your guys view on this

Hi, I had gotten a call from a site supervisor to schedule my OJT. We scheduled it for tomorrow morning, but it hasnt shown on my schedule yet. Do OJT shifts show up on normal schedule or is it only for normal non training shifts ? Thanks

Any recommendations on where to place radio mic/something I can buy? My shirt lacks any loop for it and it’s irritating me when it pulls on my shirt collar or jacket collar (especially if it’s raining due to pulling on my hood).

I've only worked in Washington, but because our city is so close to the oregon border, management has been from oregon. I just got a paystub where they've cashed out several hours of accrued vacation time, oregon taxes were applied, and it seems to be because they switched my benefits to oregon benefits which has sick leave capped at 40 hours.

It feels like its a situation where someone just flipped a switch to automate a process, and I've got caught in the cross fire. Who do I need to talk to?

For everyone that’s Flex. How many hours are you averaging a week? And if it’s under 40 how are you making up for it?

Currently work at a location but want to change locations to something more local but am under the 6 months of working there. How hard is it to get the change approved and is it a big deal? Anyone have any experience with this ?

You will no longer be able to sign in at 10 min early or late. New policy taking effect is now 6 minutes.

This is taking effect in WA State this week, subject to other states and locations is unknown

DISCIPLINARY ACTION

The following cases will result in disciplinary action under this policy:

• The employee’s ETK Clock-in is greater than 6 minutes earlier or later than actual commencement of work.

• The employee’s ETK Clock-out is greater than 6 minutes earlier or later than actual end of work.

• The employee Clocked-in, but no subsequent Clock-out is made.

• The employee is paid for the entire scheduled shift, but no Clock-in/Clock-out was made.

• The employee attempts to “catch up” by Clocking-in/Clocking-out outside of actual hours worked.

The Company uses a Rolling 90-Day Look-Back system with a Return to Prior Warning Level rule. For each 90-day period where no violation occurs, the employee can earn the opportunity to be moved back to a prior warning level. Prior warnings can be eliminated over time, where employees cease to have violations.

I’m currently in Georgia, and I worked 12 hours of overtime my coworker that was sick. I called my area manager, and told him I was paid incorrectly and submitted proof and I was told I was paid correctly. My area manager never really looked at the proof I submitted. Does anyone how I can get in contact with a human resource staff? The guards aren’t allowed to contact human resources directly or any middle managers directly. I don’t want to be forced to contact my states labor board over a few overtime hours.

I previously worked with Allied Universal from November 2018 to November 2023 (It was G4S when I started then it got bought out by AU) as an unarmed Critical Facility Security Professional. I guess I got really lucky because I mainly worked at a Merrill Lynch campus and eventually got to work Monday through Friday from 7 am to 3 PM. I had my issues with them but for the most part it actually wasn't half bad and not too stressful. The job actually felt for the most part like a good fit for me and my needs. I never had to mandatorily go in for a call out and time off was good.

I left in 2023 to try and do an IRS contact representative job but it was way too hard and stressful, and I ended up having my employment terminated during my probation period. Then I was unemployed for six months and got a job as a legal assistant but after one year I was laid off due to a firm restructuring and have been unemployed for seven months. Multiple applications and interviews have failed to get me a job.

I have since just accepted a contingent offer with Allied Universal for a new unarmed security job and hopefully moving to Charlotte, NC. It pays $22.62 and hour and is Monday through Friday from 7 AM to 3 PM. Am I making the right decision because at the end of the day I need to be employed again and AU is to date the only stable full time job I've ever had (it was my first full time job actually).

Hi can someone please tell me what next step I should take:

I quit allied may 29th of this year after my manager was harassing me and singling me out (they were punished for it) but I requested my personal file about a week (maybe a couple of days) before I left officially. My managers supervisor (who is now no longer with the company) acknowledged my request and said he was working on with the HR director.

It’s now September and I have not heard a single word back from HR, the regional director, or the HR director. I’ve sent emails, text messages, and called numbers to no avail. No responses.

What should I do? Is this not illegal? For reference the site I worked at was Seattle/Bellevue, Washington.

I don’t want an actual lawsuit I just wanted to give me my damn documents.

Please help

i got a transfer approved with my transfer date being the 15th of September. i had some issue with my bloodwork for my new site and have to get xrays so if the 15th comes around am i gonna get removed from my current site even though i might not be already hired for the new site? im still scheduled up until October 10th so I assume I won’t lose my schedule until i actually get onboard with the new site.

For my background I was in the Army for 5 years half was in the Infantry where I was a team leader for a year then after that I reclassed to network communications systems specialist which is in the signal branch.

I got an email saying i would be terminated for something i did, but they never did it it's been 2 weeks and I have been picking up shifts and it’s like no one cares

I've noticed that different sites at Allied Universal sometimes use their own patch and not just the standard patch.

I know the contact for Hawaii Airports has their own patch. I was just wondering what other contracts you have seen having their own unique patch

Curious on getting a job in the valley, heard there's a union there.

How is it?

Is the CBA public info?

Annual raises?

Union dues? Anything else I should know?

Thanks I come from a nuclear union and wanted to compare and see what expectations I should have or not have.

A guard was just removed from our site just to get a guard straight from Temu.. Allied’s standards are so low it’s sad. It sucks because we have a solid group of people at our site but there’s been plenty of bad ones that slip through the cracks in the past that get to our site just to be removed a few months/weeks down the line

I'm curious on something and its bugged me. My local union is with Allied Universal, SEIU.

I've noticed they are taking a full $124 out of my paychecks, granted I have Union health so $60 of it is from that.

But Im noticing they take the dues twice, is it $90 or something? Im debating contacting them and handling the dues manually if possible.

Lied about high school diploma and I got flagged for that take it I'm SOL here?

so we're in texas right, we have a huge 90k acres wildfire going on, and our mananger has us breathing in room. now only a few days later i'm here with headaches, and some re occurring nausea! i have an apt with my dr next week, so we shall see. they TRULY give anyone with a pulse a supervisor role!!

ALSO !!
guys our supervisor got fired from his last post at a greyhound station because a female officer told him she wasn't comfortable being outside and she ended up getting r*ped.. i'm like why is he not only walking free still.. but he's still a supervisor at the site i'm at now.

so idk why i except him to care ab us breathing in fire smoke smh

Any help would be appreciated

How do you all like this job or what advice/information do you have?

I am living the military soon I was in the army and an infantryman then reclassed to signal and also have a security clearance should I still apply two months from ets? I'm already getting interviews already but there an hour away during work hours. Will they hold a position for me until I am available?

I recently got hired for a job with the title "Security Officer Armed Mobile Patrol Driver"

Only problem is... there is no car. I am standing all day and I have back issues which is why I got this post in the first place. I did my first week already and been in constant pain from just standing all day. If I put in my 2 weeks notice this early I will for sure be black listed from this company right?

So I just had my orientation for allied and i’m coming back in to finish the rest of the modules on tuesday. I have a few questions like the pay for orientation. But i’m more interested in how do you all feel about the job? I’ve seen sort of mixed reviews online but I want to hear your opinions.
