How we work

From your brief to a signed-off shift

01

Understand the site

We learn the venue or site, the audience, the hours and the risks that matter to you.

02

Plan and roster

We set officer numbers, posts and patrol routes, breaks and handovers, and match each role to the right person.

03

Brief every officer

Officers are inducted to the site and briefed on duties, escalation and emergency procedures.

04

Supervise and report

Supervisors lead each shift. Incidents are recorded and reported to you and, where needed, the authorities.

Local and experienced

A South Australian security company since the 1970s

Weslo began as an alliance of Weslo Crowd Control, Adelaide Commercial Theatres and Weslo Holdings, which came together as Weslo Staff Pty Ltd in 2000. In 2008 we added a patrol dog company with more than 20 years of history, extending our security services to K9 patrols.

We staff and secure Thebarton Theatre, and our officers have worked festivals, concerts, sport, shopping centres and venues across Adelaide. We are locally owned and managed, so your contract is run by people who know Adelaide.
