Security Considerations in Tunis
Stores in Tunis serve a local clientele, visitors from the region and a diaspora that returns in large numbers in summer. In the Lac shopping centers and on shopping streets, officers coordinate with site security, manage crowds during the evening and weekend rush, and adjust their presence to the shifted hours of the month of Ramadan and to sales periods.
Office buildings in Lac 2 and the Centre Urbain Nord require rigorous access control, the reception of delegations and visitor management in Arabic, French and often English. Trips between the city center, Lac, Tunis-Carthage Airport and the northern suburbs depend heavily on rush hour traffic, which affects post reliefs and the planning of escorts.
Summer heat and episodes of sirocco call for sheltered exterior posts, adapted rotations and monitoring of officer hydration. In July and August, the Carthage International Festival and the beach season in La Marsa, Gammarth and Sidi Bou Said increase traffic at hotels and reception venues, with occasional needs for private evening events and product launches.

Common Questions
Can Officers Work in Arabic and French?
Language requirements are set in the Post Orders for each site. In Tunis, Tunisian Arabic and French are the common working languages, and English may be required for sites that serve an international clientele. Officer selection takes these requirements into account.
How Is Security Guard Coverage Priced?
Rates depend on the officer classification, hours, schedule and site requirements. McCray provides a written rate schedule after reviewing the needs of each site. Holiday, overnight and short-notice coverage is billed at a premium rate.
