What is the difference between a security guard and security officer?

The difference between a security guard and a security officer can be difficult to differentiate because the terms are often used interchangeably and there's no universal definition. However, many in the professional world recognize a hierarchy in which a security guard mans a post and the security officer oversees the operation. In other words, the security officer has more responsibility. Specific details in the job description like whether or not the security guard or security officer are armed also varies.

What is the dress code for a security guard?

It depends. Uniform requirements for a security guard or security officer are established at the company or organizational level, and it may also depend on the security operation. Some may require security uniforms to be dark blue like a police uniform, others may require military utilities, and then some might be informal and allow you to dress business casual.
