Security company honouring its front-line officers for work during pandemic

Feb 17, 2021 | 8:35 PM

Paladin Security says it is honouring those who have shown immense dedication and commitment since the beginning of the COIVD-19 pandemic just over a year ago.

The company says its prestigious Challenge Coin will be distributed to front-line officers across the country from now until March 5. They say the coin recognizes its security officers who have taken part, along with hundreds of thousands of other front-line works, in the battle of a lifetime to save lives and keep people healthy.

“In our lifetimes, we have never been faced with a challenge of this magnitude. Our teams across the country have worked tirelessly to ensure the evolving needs of our customers are not only met but exceeded, personifying the Paladin Difference,” said Paladin COVID-19 Recognition Committee Chair and Branch Manager Jason Lynagh.

Paladin says it has undertaken numerous initiatives locally and provincially to recognize its’ officers throughout the pandemic, but wanted to create a national program to acknowledge and unite its entire team from coast to coast.

Roughly 14,000 employees, including 180 in Red Deer, will receive the customized coin, a commemorative lapel pin, a certificate of recognition and a letter from Paladin’s President, Chad Kalyk.
