Undercover Boss: Securitas

After years in the boardroom, Geoff Zeidler of Securitas goes undercover, to be blown away by the sacrifices his security officers make and the violence and racial abuse they encounter through just doing their job. Private security company boss Geoff Zeidler of Securitas spearheaded a risky takeover of two rival firms just as the worldwide recession took hold. Securitas's global profits are down by a staggering £65 million and he's now responsible for 12,000 officers that the company didn't originally recruit. So Geoff's gone undercover to find out if his new officers are of the high caliber the customers expect. Geoff is shocked by how much pressure his new staff are under, and amazed by the personal sacrifices the security officers make. After witnessing the violence his officers tackle and the racial abuse they endure, Geoff's forced to consider whether Securitas has more to worry about than just the bottom line.
