LOCALSNAPPY · LOCAL CONNECTIONS
Find a watchman for your home, shop or site.
A watchman keeps an eye on entrances, deliveries and visitors, whether for a building, a shop or a construction site. LocalSnappy helps you find individuals listed in your locality and talk to them directly about the shift and duties involved.

Define the post and the shift
Explain the premises, the entry points to be watched and whether it is a day, night or 24-hour post. List the duties clearly: gate duty, visitor register, parcel handling or patrolling. Mention the facilities available for the guard, such as a seat, shelter and drinking water.
Verify identity and references
Ask for identity proof and references from previous employers, and confirm them yourself. For a society or business, follow any police verification practice that applies in your area. A directory listing is not a security clearance.
Agree on terms directly
Agree on shift timing, weekly off, replacement during leave and how incidents are reported to you. If you need a licensed agency for your premises, check that separately. Terms and payment are between you and the guard.
