Gremios de la vigilancia privada defienden tarifa mínima regulada y piden pronunciamiento a la Supervigilancia

TL;DR

Private security industry guilds have rejected claims that surveillance service fees should be adjusted by inflation or supply and demand.
The minimum tariff for private surveillance in Colombia is legally regulated and indexed to the minimum wage (SMMLV), not the IPC.
Current regulations, including Decree Law 356 of 1994, mandate that tariffs must cover wages, overtime, social benefits, and operational costs.
The industry is labor-intensive, employing 400,000 people, with labor costs comprising 85% of the total service value and profit margins around 4%.
Contracting services below the regulated minimum tariff is illegal and can result in economic sanctions and license cancellation by the Superintendence of Private Surveillance and Security.
Users contracting non-habilitated companies may face fines between 20 and 40 SMMLV.
Guilds called for institutional responsibility and a public statement from the Superintendence of Private Surveillance and Security to clarify the application of the minimum service tariff for 2026.
