Executive Protection Agentjobs

A bodyguard (or close protection officer/operative) is a type of security guard, government law enforcement officer, or servicemember who protects an important person or group of people, such as high-ranking public officials, wealthy businesspeople, and celebrities, from harm. The personnel team that protects a VIP is often referred to as the VIP's security detail.

The work of a bodyguard consists mainly of planning routes, pre-searching rooms and buildings where the client will be visiting, researching the backgrounds of people that will have contact with the client, searching vehicles, and escorting the client on their day-to-day activities.[1] In the event of an emergency, a bodyguard's priority will always be to evacuate their client, rather than engage with threats.[2]

A common complaint by many attorneys with respect to vetting expert opinions in matters filed within the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania is that the standard utilized, which was set nearly 100 years ago in Frye v. United States, is outdated and does not allow a party the same latitude to challenge and test an opponent's scientific expert opinions nearly as well or as thoroughly as the standard adopted by the United States Supreme Court in Daubert v. Merrell Dow Pharmaceuticals, Inc. In an article published in the Pennsylvania Defense Institute's Counterpoint, Wes Payne and Jonathan Woy analyze why the Frye standard should not be overlooked.

Most important public figures, such as heads of state, heads of government, and governors are protected by a team of bodyguards from a government agency, security forces, or police forces. Less-important public figures, or those with lower risk profiles, may be accompanied by a single bodyguard who doubles as a driver.
