Accreditation in the NHWA shows a member’s desire to strive for excellence. As membership grows, so too does the legitimacy of the entire Home Watch industry. The federal government does not yet recognize the autonomy of Home Watch. This is evidenced by the lack of a NAICS (North American Industry Classification System) code assigned to our industry. Non-members have a difficult time obtaining the correct general liability insurance, and this is a direct result of Home Watch not having an individual classification code. Consider the possibilities of having a recognized relationship with insurance companies and lending establishments. With accreditation, you’ll become a member of a growing association of companies that are ready to be counted.
