New provisions under the PSISA would include:

  1. Security industry workers must be licensed, including some that were not licensed previously

  2. The security guard carries their own license

  3. Changes to training, standards to uniforms, equipment, vehicles, license eligibility, use of force reporting and conduct

  4. All of the above

The correct answer is: All of the above

The correct answer is "All of the above" because all the statements provided in the options are accurate provisions under the Private Security and Investigative Services Act (PSISA). Firstly, the PSISA did mandate that all security industry workers must be licensed, and this includes some roles that did not require a license prior to the enactment of the PSISA. This provision helps ensure all individuals on the job have the necessary qualifications and training, in order to protect the public's safety. Secondly, under the PSISA, every security guard is required to carry their own license while on duty. This provision is implemented as a measure to identify legitimate and trained security professionals. Lastly, the PSISA also introduced changes to the training, standards to uniforms, equipment, vehicles, license eligibility, use of force reporting and conduct of security industry professionals. These changes were made to increase the professionalism and accountability in the industry. All these provisions combine to form the entirety of the PSISA laws. Hence, all the options listed are included in the new provisions under the PSISA.
