A special project involving the car guards along the Gqeberha beach fronts from Kings Beach to Pollock Beach was launched today at the Shark Rock Pier.
The project entails having unregistered car guards follow a course and obtaining the necessary accreditation (Grade E) through Private Security Regulating Authority (PSIRA). In addition, car guards will be wearing a visible ID card on a colour coded and numbered identification vest/bib.
The project was initially spearheaded by the SAPS Humewood Sector Manager (Sector 3), Warrant Officer Mornay van der Berg about three years ago, and since then have been joined by the SAPS Humewood Community Police Forum (CPF) Chairperson, Mr Kevin Slattery, Ward 2 Councillor, Mr Renaldo Gouws, the Summerstrand Neighbourhood Watch (SSNW), Mr Ian Millar, Nelson Mandela Bay Metro Security, Atlas security, ADT Security and City Wide Security.
The launch today also aims to promote the colour coded and numbered identification vests/bibs, as car guards will have specific areas allocated as per the colour code:
Yellow and Blue - Kings Beach
Yellow and Green - Humewood
Yellow and Orange - Hobie Beach
Yellow and Red - Something Good
Yellow and Charcoal- Pollock Beach
On the back of the vests/bibs will be a unique number for every car guard for easy identification.
From today, the car guards that are not registered yet, will be allowed a six month period to obtain the accreditation.
