Business Security Systems are the #1 Way to Protect Employees
Employee safety is a very important aspect of business security. If you are wondering how this is possible, you may be quite surprised to learn the answer. Of course, robbery defense is one aspect. When business security systems are in place that include video surveillance, robbers are most likely deterred from following through with a robbery. Without such systems, Rochester, Buffalo, and Syracuse businesses would see more robberies than they do.
SPS Fire & Security is an integral player in the business security system arena throughout the region, as the systems that are installed are state-of-the-art and reliable.
Employee Protections
Aside from protecting against robberies, business security systems protect employees in the following ways:
- If an employee steals, you can charge them. Unfortunately, false claims can happen without good video surveillance and security. Businesses also suffer when they cannot find who or how the theft is happening. A company wastes time and money when it tries to stop theft but doesn’t know who is stealing.
- Businesses should use video surveillance for accident claims. If a worker gets hurt, the video shows what happened. Thus, if the worker caused their injury, the video can help with a workers’ compensation claim. Likewise, if someone else’s carelessness hurt the worker, the video will also prove it.
Merchandise Protection
Business security systems can also contribute to shoplifting prevention. If a shoplifter knows there is a camera on them, they may not shoplift. When shoplifting occurs, the footage can be used to catch the culprit.
If there is a burglary after hours, the alarm system will sound and alert the authorities. Once again, video can be used to try and catch the thief. Most of the time, the mere presence of an alarm system and video surveillance will deter a burglar.
Furthermore, having security measures in place reduces monetary losses, which allows a business to not cut hours or freeze hiring in order to accommodate money lost to theft. This is another way in which employees are protected.
