The exact responsibilities and tasks of an access controller can vary depending on the environment and industry in which they work, making it a very varied job.
But among the most common are usually:
- Direct and order the entry of persons into the establishments, so as not to disturb the development of the different activities for which entry is provided.
- Check that the number of people trying to access the establishments is not greater than the maximum authorized capacity. If the maximum capacity is reached, the entrance must be closed so that it is not exceeded.
