Security company G4S Secure Solutions (G4S) has landed a three year contract with global steel manufacturer, Tata Steel to protect five UK sites.
From April G4S will provide a range of technology and manned guarding security services across Tata Steel’s Long Products business.
Sites to receive G4S services include; Scunthorpe (North Lincolnshire), Immingham Bulk Terminal (South Humberside), Dalzell (Lanarkshire), Clydebridge (Lanarkshire), and Skinningrove (North Yorkshire).
G4S will be responsible for managing visitor entry for all contractors and employees: for patrolling the sites; administering alcohol testing; enforcing site speed limits and other security related services.
