Site Supervisor Mark Fritsche recently honored two outstanding team members at a premier financial institution site in Jacksonville, FL, for their unwavering commitment to site safety and security. Please join us in celebrating Officer Christina Ware, our Orlando Regional Officer of the Quarter! She was acknowledged by the National Account Manager for her actions after she quickly responded to suspicious activity. Her vigilance was instrumental in stopping a pattern of theft, later determined by an investigation and managerial action. Officer Elena Chorpening was recently recognized with an appreciation award for her above and beyond performance during two site incidents. When faced with an access control breach and an elevator entrapment involving five employees, Elena remained calm and decisive. By following procedures promptly and professionally, she ensured a safe resolution for everyone involved. These officers’ dedication to excellence and deep expertise are on display every single day. We’re truly fortunate to have them on our team! #Security #SecurityTeam #SecurityNews #Orlando #Florida #FloridaBusiness #SecurityCompany #SecurityServices
