If a business entity is found to be in violation of the PSISA and/or the Code of Conduct they could be subject to the following fine of:

  1. $300,000

  2. $250,000

  3. $200,000

  4. $150,000

The correct answer is: $250,000

The Private Security and Investigative Services Act (PSISA) is the regulatory body for security guards in Ontario. The Act specifies a number of penalties for violation of its rules and regulations, including fines for business entities. According to the PSISA, a corporation or business entity found to be in violation of the Act and the Code of Conduct can be subjected to a fine of up to $250,000. This high financial penalty is meant to both deter companies from violating the laws and to reflect the serious nature of these violations and their potential impact on public safety.
