Can a security officer arrest a suspect for any misdemeanor that has been committed in his view or presence?

Most security guards do not have powers of arrest - only those sworn as law enforcement officers do, which would make them privatized police, and not security guards. As for powers of detention, it varies greatly between agencies and properties they secure. Guards at a nuclear power plant can detain - mall security typically cannot.


Does a security officer have the police power to make an arrest in new jersey?

No, NJ does not give Private Security officers/guards any special police powers to execute an arrest. You only have the power to make a citizens arrest. However you should talk to your employer first, since they may not want you to arrest anyone, due to the problems that come with court fees and liability issues. You function as a private citizen. Some states do grant Security guards police powers, Ex- federal security officers. You can detain individuals however you may be accused of false imprisonment which carries the dangers of liability. Train conductors, teachers, firemen, EMT's ect.. are all protected under the law, for being state employees. Private security officers work for private corporate interests, not the state. I used to work in security, but due to the dangers of liability and not having any special status within the law, i quit the industry.


Can a security officer arrest a person for traffic violations?

It can depend on the place and circumstances that the detaining takes place. If he is on duty and at his place of employment or (if curcumstances warranted it) an occurrence at his employment that required an apprehension off his employers property, yes, he probably can. However, if he is off duty and sees criminal activity occurring his authority then, is no more than that of a routine citizen. He may make a "citizen's arrest" but other than that, he possesses no statutory authority or power of arrest when he is off work.

Can security guards be in international union?

Security guards can join an international union to ensure that their rights and interests are represented and protected.

Additionally, the union can provide support in filing grievances, or advocating for legislation and legal changes that benefit security guards. Joining an international union is a powerful way to gain collective bargaining power and protect your rights.

In Australia can handcuffs be used in a citizen's arrest I have a pair and people have been stealing from my store and was wondering if it was legal for me to detain them like that?

In Australia, it is permitted to use "reasonable and proportionate force" to prevent the escape of the offender while you call the police. However, the guidelines on the Australian Federal Police website for effecting a citizen's arrest (see the related link) stipulate that you must be absolutely sure that they have stolen from you and have no intention of paying. At the time of writing this answer, related links are not showing on the answers. If you cannot see the link but want more information, do a web search for Australian Federal Police Citizen's Power of Arrest.

Pinkertons could make "citizen's arrests". They weren't encumbered with jurisdictions or the rights of the accused since they weren't government officials. Think "Dog the bounty hunter" minus the mega-mullet.
