Security At Work
Ensuring you have adequate security at work is incredibly important, both from a business perspective, and as a moral obligation for employers. This is the case for many reasons – to protect your staff (and possibly customers), to protect your business and its assets, to improve productivity and to prevent crimes of all kinds. Whether it’s a digital lock system then or a surveillance solution from Bosch security systems, you should have one or several security measures in place.
First of all you should focus on a good lock for your business premises. For small shops and restaurants a cylinder lock will be a good route to go down and these have many benefits over other mechanical locks such as the lever lock. One of these advantages is that a cylinder lock has more possible permeations than other mechanical locks, which makes it harder to break in to; the other is that they are easy and fairly easy to replace. Therefore should your workplace be robbed or a key go missing, you can fairly easily have the locks replaced.
For larger businesses however, digital locks have many more advantages and with lots of staff members will pay for the initial investment. These will be impossible to pick or open with a skeleton key (though they can be hacked) and can be operated or modified remotely to allow you to either let people in from an upstairs office, or change a code or security settings. With digital locks that utilise either pin codes or biometric data (such as finger prints), you will have the large advantage of not needing to give each employee a key and never needing to change the locks which can save a lot of money.
Another option in terms of locking mechanisms is to get a gate or shutter that can cover the front of your building. This is particularly useful for businesses with a ‘store front’ that looks out onto the street as it can help prevent accidental damage or vandalism by providing a barrier between the street and the windows and doors.
The next line of defence however is CCTV. A CCTV camera (good makes include Hikvision DVR and those from Bosch Security Systems or Samsung Techwin) will help you to monitor and record everything that happens within your premises which can help to dissuade crime or theft, but also act as evidence to aid in a police investigation or a court case should a crime occur and help improve your chances of getting what was stolen back. Look for a digital camera such as Hikvision DVR which is far superior to analogue models for larger businesses allowing for more ‘tracks’ to be recorded and enabling you to alter factors such as resolution and frame rate. Also ensure that your camera conforms to the ONVIF global standard to guarantee quality. Those models mentioned above, such as Samsung Techwin, should guarantee a certain amount of quality on their own. With all these systems and measures in place you can then hope that you will dissuade anyone from acts of crime directed towards your business or clients and rest assured you did everything in your power to prevent them.
