    Security Duties in Worker Control at Construction Sites

    Construction sites are high-risk environments where safety, order, and property protection are critical. Among security responsibilities, monitoring and managing workers—the primary labor force on-site—plays a vital role. Security guards are not only tasked with maintaining order but also support site management in preventing violations, unauthorized access, and theft, contributing to the overall safety and security of the site.
