Beyond a professional security presence, oftentimes a business needs an extra loss-prevention and safety component to its security plan—a video surveillance system. Ever looked into one? With reduced technology costs, online technology, and increased regulations in the 21st Century, here are just a few reasons why you should consider investing in such a system:
- Protect people: Video surveillance systems are great for monitoring access points and un-staffed areas, which is important in providing a safe environment for your employees. Additionally, video surveillance systems have been shown to reduce violence and harassment, creating healthier workplaces.
- Live, 24/7 access: With current technology, it’s possible for all cameras to be viewed “live” from virtually anywhere via the internet on a Smartphone. Additionally, using a remote joystick, cameras can be adjusted to zoom, tilt or pan.
- Benefit your bottom line: Video surveillance systems not only limit inventory shrinkage and property damage, they are deterrents to crime and can help to lower liability and insurance costs. Effective video surveillance programs can also improve overall productivity and customer service. All of these items contribute to your bottom line, making this the icing on the video surveillance cake.
- Regulatory compliance: For food packagers, video surveillance can also play a critical role in your Homeland Security Food Defense Plan, which must be implemented in accordance with the Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA).
