Mining security services
Bidvest Protea Coin deploys over 6,000 PSIRA-accredited and trained security officers to a significant number of mines across the country. This makes us the largest security role player in the South African mining sector.
Our presence in the mining sector is prevalent in Gauteng, Northwest, Mpumalanga, Limpopo, KwaZulu Natal and Northern Cape provinces. Our security officers are fully trained to protect all the major commodity operations, including gold, platinum, coal, chrome, manganese and copper.
In addition to the basic legislated security training received, the mining security officers undergo specialist, supervisory and control room training. Thereafter, on deployment, the security officer will receive mine-specific induction training based on the mine security and safety policies. Customised Security Operational Procedures are then created for each post description.
Additional services are often deployed at the mines that include weighbridge operators, armed response and tactical response teams. We also have underground tactical response and drone support.
The Bidvest Protea Coin mining operations team works closely with our other support services like Intelligence/Investigations and data analysts, Special Operations / Crowd Control unit, and the Airwing (helicopters and drones) division to ensure a fully integrated and tailored security solution is provided. Our operations are further reinforced by our proven and professional collaboration with law enforcement agencies such as the SAPS, NPA, and DPCI.
