I'm sorry, but this is the world that civilian airfields that handle commercial passengers have to live in. The security companies have to be internally audited for compliance by their own management and externally by airport management; security provision is then subject to regulatory oversight, which will pick up on the slightest infringement, reviewing documentary records, bodycam recordings, and CCTV. This results in airports having to provide a corrective action plan for any infringement or lapse, and could cost the security provider a 'fine' under the T&Cs of its contract with the airport. Given that the contract price will have been driven down to minimum by airports striving to make money and security providers desperate to obtain the contract. Common sense or convenient workarounds are not an option.
