It’s a fact of life, theft is an opportunistic pastime.
Customers or employees see a chance to steal from your business and before you know it, you’re losing money. Police recommend that we remain vigilant to know what’s happening around us, but we can’t always be present and watching. That’s when investing in a commercial surveillance camera system installation really pays dividends.
There are five key areas that workplace theft occurs in. They are:
• Stock
• Information & Data Theft
• Bogus Purchase Orders Made by Employees
• Payroll Fraud
• Misusing Corporate Credit Cards
Surveillance cameras in the workplace can help reduce workplace theft in these areas simply by being there. As a deterrent, security cameras force both employees and customers to think twice before taking property. However, they’re also smart and if they know you have a dummy camera or only ones in set locations, they’ll find a way to continue to take from you. Therefore it’s important to understand how to use CCTV cameras to help prevent theft published on our recent blog the Insiders Guide To Catching Thieves.
When you install your CCTV cameras, it’s important that you tell your staff and display signage that tells them they are being monitored. This is a requirement of the Privacy Law and you can read more about your responsibilities in another of our blogs CCTV Privacy Issues You Need to Be Aware Of.
