Industrial Security Management History and Basics

Historical Background and Basic Concepts of Industrial Security Management

• The need for security dates back to the history of man, with dangers posed by nature and fellow human beings.
• The concept of security management evolved over time, with the Philippine "Hacienderos" (landowners) hiring farm workers who doubled as protectors of property against cattle rustlers and robbers.
• With the entry of American mining industries, armed security personnel were hired to protect properties.
• In the 1950s, hired security personnel became widespread, but there were no strict regulations, leading to the establishment of the Philippine Association of Detective and Protective Agency Operators (PADPAO) in 1958.
• This led to the endorsement of a bill to regulate private detectives, watchmen, security guards, and agencies, resulting in the passage of RA 5487 or the "Private Security Law" in 1969, which started the professionalization of security works in the Philippines.
