The Advantages of Surveillance Camera Systems
Installing quality surveillance camera systems, has become commonplace in both residential and business communities. The specific benefits for business owners include a reduction in insurance cost, an improvement in their bottom line by reducing losses, and an overall safer environment for their valued employees. Here are just a few of the benefits of installing state-of-the-art surveillance camera systems:
Theft Deterrent
Installing surveillance cameras in your home or office can be a theft deterrent to guard against the criminal element that exists in your area. Criminals are far less likely to commit a crime when they realize that they are being monitored. We would like to believe that all of our employees are honest individuals, but you would be quite surprised to learn how often staff members steal from their employers. Employees are far less likely to engage in illicit activities when they know that someone is watching.
Reduction in Insurance Costs
Business insurance rates can be driven by the cost claims. Surveillance cameras can reveal the true cause of a workplace accident or unveil fraud or theft committed by your staff. For this reason, most insurance carriers will offer a substantial discount when you install a security system in your office. Homeowners policies generally offer a similar discount if your property is equipped with a monitoring system. In both cases the savings are significant and, in many instances, will offset the expense of installing the security system.
Monitor Productivity
As a business owner, you can’t possibly monitor each and every activity on the production floor. Installing video cameras throughout your facility will help you keep a watchful eye on productivity in your plant. Additionally, you can monitor activities remotely when travelling for business or working from home on a weekend. This is quite a helpful tool for 2 shift operations.
Creating a Safe Work Environment
You owe it to your employees to create a safe workplace. This includes monitoring the entrance and exits to your facility as well as the parking areas. Your staff will feel much safer when arriving to work in the early hours or leaving in the darkness late into the evening or after 2nd shift. Additionally, their personal vehicles are less likely to be vandalized during normal working hours.
