Unless your employer has been given an exemption under Section 4(4) of the Private Security Industry Act 2001, it is a criminal offence to work as a Door Supervisor in England and Wales without an SIA licence. An exemption is applicable only where the company you work for has been granted Approved Contractor status by the SIA and the other conditions of Section 4(4) have also been met. Every condition must be met for this section to be applied.
If you do work without a licence you will be committing a criminal offence, punishable on conviction by a fine of up to £5,000, 6 months imprisonment or even both.
