Security Guard Services in Morocco

Security Considerations in Morocco

A program in Morocco most often covers boutiques in Casablanca and Marrakech, offices at Casablanca Finance City and in Rabat, and sometimes warehouses in the Tanger Med area. The program applies the same Post Orders, the same supervision and the same reporting format at every site. Moroccan Arabic is spoken everywhere and French is the common language of business; English is requested at luxury boutiques and hotels, and Spanish is useful in the north.

Marrakech receives visitors year round, with peaks in spring, in autumn and over the year-end holidays, and the coast sees a peak in summer. Ramadan changes the hours of stores and staff. Coverage plans should include relief officers, seasonal reinforcement, procedures for heat at exterior posts and coordination with shopping center and building security.
