Who may not have in his or her employment a person whose registration has expired, or been revoked, denied, suspended or canceled?

• A. The licensee
• B. The alarm user
• C. The branch office manager
• D. The inspector

Answer: (A)

The key rule is that anyone performing duties that require alarm registration must have valid, current registration. The licensee—the entity holding the alarm company license—may not employ someone whose registration has expired, been revoked, denied, suspended, or canceled. Doing so would violate licensing requirements and can lead to penalties or license discipline for the licensee. The alarm user isn’t responsible for staff registrations, and the inspector is a state official enforcing the rules rather than the employer of alarm personnel. The branch office manager is part of the company, but the obligation to ensure all staff are properly registered rests with the licensee, making them the one who may not have such a person in their employment.
