Las Vegas Casinos Resolve Armed Security Shortage Before Hectic Month
The struggles of Las Vegas casinos to hire armed security staff are well documented, with recent regulatory changes implemented with the aim of speeding up the background check process. Properties are now rushing to beef up their security ahead of a hectic month of events, with the Las Vegas Formula 1 Grand Prix, Neon City Festival, and the US Presidential election all taking place in November.
Millions of additional people will flock to the city in the coming weeks, with Protective Force International (PFI) CEO Jonathan Alvarez revealing his private security contracting firm has recently partnered with 18 casinos. He can’t disclose the exact properties for safety reasons.

The company provides extensive training to its employees, even if they have past law enforcement or military experience. They also utilize advanced technology systems like thermal imaging in their surveillance activities. One of their big focuses in November will be complying with Clark County’s request for its staff to help patrol voting centers and have camera systems in place on election day.
