5 Reasons Why Your Business Needs CCTV Systems

Whether it’s to ensure your stock is stored safely or to protect your employees from intruders, taking the right security measures to keep your business safe is essential. CCTV is a fantastic security measure that can help keep your business protected from thieves, intruders or vandals, and to help convince you of the benefits, the team here at Systematic Services have put together a list of 5 reasons why your business needs CCTV systems.

• Powerful crime deterrent
  CCTV cameras act as a very powerful visual deterrent to would-be intruders and thieves as they don’t want their identity to be caught on camera or for themselves to be connected to a crime. Place your cameras in visible sight and put up warnings that CCTV is in operation and you’re sure to stop any criminal in their tracks.
  

• Reduces your insurance
  Properties that have CCTV installed are deemed to be more secure than properties without, which means that insurance companies are confident that your premises is less likely to be broken into, in turn reducing your likelihood of making a claim. This allows insurance companies to reduce the premiums on your policy, saving you money every month.

• Gives you peace of mind
  A CCTV system watching over your premises gives you peace of mind that your business is being well protected from thieves and vandals, even when you’re away from the office or even out of the country. This can reduce your stress outside of work and allow you to really relax.
  
  If you really can’t bear the idea of not monitoring your property yourself, you could opt for IP CCTV systems, which allows the video and audio your cameras pick up to be transmitted to a laptop or mobile of your choosing, perfect for those sleepless nights when you can’t stop your mind from worrying!

• Increases staff safety
  Keeping your staff safe in the workplace should be of vital importance to you, and installing CCTV is one simple way of ensuring everyone on your premises is secure. Whether you have night workers that you want to ensure are safe or just want to keep an eye on all of your staff as they go about their daily tasks, having CCTV will protect them from intruders as well as threatening behaviour from other employees, making your premises a safe work environment for everyone.

• Catches intruders red handed
  One of the biggest benefits of CCTV systems is that they provide concrete evidence that places the intruders on your property, so if you were to fall victim to crime and had to undergo a court proceedings, you can be certain that the criminals would be prosecuted for their crimes.
