Practical Benefits of Business Video Surveillance

Even if you feel like you live at the office, you probably can’t keep an eye on it 24 hours a day. So, if you can’t, then who can? The solution could be less of a who and more of a what.

Video surveillance cameras can serve as a deterrent to thieves and could prevent break-ins. If a break-in does occur, security cameras are crucial in solving the crime and, hopefully, recovering any stolen items. Cameras can also provide clear evidence in the case of a business dispute. An unseen workplace injury could cause disagreement between employee and employer, but video surveillance cameras would provide the evidence needed to settle a dispute. Video surveillance cameras are also a cost-efficient alternative to other forms of security such as security guards.

Placement of surveillance cameras is vital to ensure you are using them effectively. You should position cameras in both the interior and exterior of your business. Monitor all entrances and exits, and it is best if the cameras face outward and at an angle that can capture faces of anyone entering the building. Supervise any remote or isolated place in the business. Parking lots, nearby alleyways and walkways are also essential to keep an eye, or camera, on.
