Introduction
While private security is regulated by legislation in each country, there is a growing need for the use of
common terminology and concepts. This document describes the common terms in the standards that
are produced or maintained by the CEN/TC 439 “Private Security Services”. The primary goal is to ensure
that the users of the CEN/TC 439 standards understand the common terms they face while reading the
standards. Secondarily, this standard contains terms that may not occur in any standard drafted and
maintained by CEN/TC 439. These are defined for the purpose of achieving common understanding in
general.
Terms that are specific to individual sectors (e.g. airport or maritime) are defined within sector
standards. An up-to-date portfolio of CEN/TC 439 standards can be found on the CEN website.
This document is the second edition. There are two main changes compared with the first edition. Firstly,
several terms have been added and some have been deleted. Secondly, this edition comes with an
introduction.

Introduction
This document describes the common terms used in the standards that are produced or maintained by
the CEN/TC 439 “Private Security Services”. The goal is to ensure that the users/readers of the CEN/TC
439 standards understand the common terms they face while reading the standards.
Terms that are specific to individual sectors will be defined within that sector standard.
While private security is regulated by legislation in each country, there is a growing need for the use of
common terminology and concepts.
This document is the second edition. There are two main changes compared with the first edition. Firstly,
the structure has been changed. Secondly, several terms are added. This edition comes with an
introduction and two new subclauses. These clauses contain the sector specific terms from the maritime
and airport subject areas. As more sector-specific standards are published, this standard will need to be
reviewed accordingly.
