Terms and Conditions of Service
In order to maintain high standards of performance and ensure client and employee satisfaction it is advisable that Gurkhas are employed on sustainable terms and conditions. As such FSI recommend a minimum ratio of 3.75 men per post. This ratio will generally require guards to work 8 hours a day, 6 days a week. Where contract constraints require that men work 12 hour shifts FSI can advise on manning and how best to manage such a rotation.
Where appropriate FSI will present every individual with a signed employment contract prior to deployment. The contract will clearly state the basic rate of pay, any bonus entitlements, leave entitlements and terms & conditions of service and an FSI Director will explain this in detail to the men before they deploy.
Gurkha personnel will generally expect personal accident insurance cover of between $75,000 to $100,000 and FSI can provide this at extremely competitive rates.
