Yes you can work as your own company --- BUT, that company must be properly registerd w/ the DPS/State of TX as a Security Company. A lenghy test is required as well

DPS checked our credentials this week, so sooner or later someone will go to jail or pay a big fine for not complying with the law.
Don,t you have to register to be a gate guard company before you can go out on your own?
If ya'll havent realized it yet .. in TX "the DPS Security Card" belongs to YOU, its your card - not the companies. It would be the worker/contractor/employee that would be fined along w/ te company if you dont have one.
