When it comes to the safety and security of your business, video surveillance and CCTV cameras are essential. Here are 15 benefits and reasons for video surveillance. If your business or company does not have a surveillance camera system, you need to reconsider.
Surveillance cameras placed throughout the company help prevent general crimes and break-ins. Companies are four times more likely to be targeted by burglars than homes, highlighting the importance of camera systems in companies.
Surveillance cameras installed in a visible and obvious location can help prevent theft. Did you know that 64% of all small businesses are victims of in-house employee theft?
Small businesses are more vulnerable to employee theft. This is because there are often fewer safeguards and preventive measures in place.
Studies show that 60.5% of burglaries involve violence. Statistics indicate that most robberies actually involve force (breaking windows, picking locks, kicking doors, etc.). A good security system, including surveillance cameras, can strongly deter such crimes.
Security cameras protect your employees both directly and indirectly. When installed in company parking lots and outside the building, they can record suspicious activity and allow security officers or others to ensure that employees reach their cars safely.
Having a good security system, including surveillance cameras, shows your customers that you care about their safety and security , it can improve their overall perception and loyalty to your company.
Business owners bear both direct and indirect costs to repair the damage of vandalism. According to the US Small Business Administration, the average cost of a single vandalism incident is $3,370. It has been shown that clearly visible surveillance cameras significantly reduce the threat of violence and vandalism in businesses.
Surveillance cameras and video recording can also help you sell more products in retail stores. Monitoring customer consumption and behaviour through surveillance cameras makes it easy to track customer movement patterns throughout the store. This allows you to move inventory and adjust products to maximise the potential of high-traffic areas.
Avoid costly legal expenses from false or unfair claims from customers or employees. Litigation issues are the worst concern for business owners. Whether an accident, injury, harassment, or other legal issue occurs on site, having video evidence from surveillance cameras can prove what actually happened and reduce legal troubles.
Video surveillance indirectly protects employees by monitoring every visitor who enters the building and keeping a video record of their activity.
Good coverage and installation of CCTV cameras and security systems significantly reduces the number of security staff required on site.
A Bloomberg Business study on the effects of surveillance in 392 restaurants showed that where surveillance cameras were properly installed, businesses experienced a 22% reduction in theft and a 7% increase in profits.
Retail businesses use CCTV cameras to monitor customer transactions. For example, if a customer claims that they purchased something expensive but lost the receipts, or that an employee treated them inappropriately or provided incorrect information, video surveillance records can be used to verify the truth of the customer’s claims and what actually happened.
Video surveillance makes sense from a business perspective because, often, whether you are a business owner or manager, you cannot be in more than one place at the same time. Video surveillance gives you visual access to your business whenever you need it, 24/7.
It was found that 60% of known thieves were identified entering at least two different branches of the same retail chain. These thieves were prevented from carrying out the thefts they had planned.
