Which of the following would NOT be a reason to write a report as a security guard?

To pass on important information
To describe how much force was used in an arrest
To describe details of a critical incident on site
To describe why you require days off in the future

The correct answer is: To describe why you require days off in the future

The rationale for selecting that response lies in the specific responsibilities that a security guard typically holds. Writing a report primarily serves as a means of documenting incidents, ensuring important information is effectively communicated, and establishing a record of actions taken during security operations. A report about a critical incident or the use of force during an arrest directly pertains to the guard's job duties and the overall security of the environment. In contrast, detailing reasons for future days off falls outside the scope of security-related reporting. This kind of information would generally be handled through human resources or operational management processes rather than through incident reporting. Therefore, it is clearly not relevant to the responsibilities of a security guard in the context of reporting on security matters.
