Protect Your Business from Burglars & Shoplifters

High profile businesses with expensive on-site stock are most vulnerable to break-ins and dealing with stolen property.  Companies without proper CCTV surveillance systems are ongoing targets by burglars who understand that once a business closes, it’s open season for company assets.

A proper CCTV surveillance system can sometimes act as a preventive measure itself, as many perpetrators simply opt to break into businesses that rolled the dice and opted against commercial cameras altogether.  Further, in today’s world, burglars are more brazen than ever, sometimes not even waiting until after hours but instead electing to rob you in broad daylight, especially when there’s no CCTV camera system on site.

Opting for a professional CANASA-certified [hyper-link to CANASA page] installation of a commercial grade CCTV surveillance system, is a great preventive first step to protecting company assets.

Protect Your Business from False Insurance Claims

Unfortunate but true, many employees take advantage of their employers through false worker’s compensation claims. Video surveillance adds a layer of protection, decreasing chances that someone can fraud their way to “free money.” In many cases, and with proper hard drives, you may keep footage from cameras for up to three months.  This is especially useful if employees wait several weeks prior to filing a claim. Essentially, with a video surveillance system, it’s simple to verify or dispute a claim, saving your business time and dollars.

Prevent Employee Theft

Companies lose significant capital each year due to employee theft. Adding video surveillance to your current security system can curb this behaviour. Surveillance cameras placed in conspicuous locations will implicitly inform employees that someone is watching, while hidden cameras will catch the more discreet misgivings of an employee. While it’s not pleasant to assume that workers would steal from your business, it’s crucial to protect your livelihood.

Improve Business Strategy

Once you have surveillance cameras installed with multiple vantages throughout the building, you will gain a new perspective on your businesses’ customer flow. With security cameras, you can also assess common traffic patterns and areas where customers congregate most often.
