South Africa is making important changes to its private security regulations to improve safety and accountability without taking away guns from security guards. With over 600,000 security officers contributing billions to the economy, the proposed rules aim to ensure they have the right tools and training while preventing misuse. While some worry about costs, many professionals believe these changes will raise industry standards and weed out bad practices. As discussions continue, the future of this vital sector hangs in the balance, reflecting a broader push for accountability in society.
