ABOUT WHELAN SECURITY

Founded in 1949 in St. Louis, Missouri, Whelan Security has enjoyed a rich heritage of service excellence rivaled by few in the contract security industry.  While other security companies have merged, consolidated, downsized or sold, Whelan is still owned by the same family and guided by the same business prinicples more than half a century after our inception. 

Whelan Security stands apart from our competitors by priding ourselves on the "Value of Performance" of our security officers. To do this, we offer the best training for all employees, which includes, Basic Training, On-The-Job Training, First-Aid/CPR Training, In-Service, as well as Vertical Market Training. 

We realize that the fundamental basics of a good securtiy program reside in the standard processes of the employee selection, retention and development. Unfortunately, most security companies focus on their clients and disregard their employees in these critical areas. At Whelan, we take the screening, selection, retention and development of our employees seriously, and have developed comprehensive 10-step proceses to ensure that we are providing the most professional security peronnel in the industry.
