AB  - Security personnel now outnumber police in Australia. Based on census data, the paper compares the characteristics of employees in each group and examines the nature of businesses in the security industry. As the sector is expected to grow, the paper argues for more consistent and precise data to inform policies on national standards and licensing regimes.
