GEB Security Services rewards its high achievers On July 24 last, one of the country’s longest serving security services, GEB Security Services Inc, held its Annual Award Presentation Ceremony for its guards and officers during which a number of persons received monetary awards in six categories for salutary performances. The company’s Chief Executive Officer Maurice Amres told Stabroek Business that the awards were bestowed as a means of “boosting the morale of the Guards by recognizing their good qualities and services provided.
The GEB (Guyana Employment Bureau) was initially created in 1969 and according to Amres is the only “comprehensive” private security company operating in Guyana boasting seven divisions ranging from Baton Guards to divisions responsible for providing VIP bodyguard services (Special Operations Division Agents (SODA) and a Local and Overseas Criminal & Marine Investigations Division.
Amres says that that the GEB was giving service to the sector at a time when the security sector faces many challenges not least, at a juncture when foreign companies were making “high security demands” with which private security services in Third World countries are still not acquainted.
