Ohio Passes Licensing Law

COLUMBUS, Ohio

The Ohio House of Representatives recently passed a bill that requires the licensure of persons who perform security, fire/life-safety and locksmith services. The bill also requires background checks of licensees and mandates training requirements.

The bill (HB 41 Security Licensing), which is supported by the Ohio Burglar and Fire Alarm Association (OBFAA), will now proceed to the state senate. OBFAA says it will continue to work with Representatives Joe Uecker and his aide Sheila Ross to lobby for the passage of the legislation.
