Ordningsvaktsområde
A security guard area (ordningsvaktsområde) is a defined area where security guards may operate, and it is decided by the Police (Polismyndigheten) after an application. Within the area, security guards may carry out their duties in a public place, which is otherwise not allowed just anywhere. That the boundaries are set by the police means it is a public agency that decides where this kind of guarding may take place.
