Now that the workforce is headed back into the office after nearly two years of remote or hybrid work, it’s a good time to review your security systems. Protecting your business, including your employees, revenue, and business technology should be a top priority.
Over one million burglaries occur every year in the United States. Don’t let your business become one of those statistics.
Installing a high quality security system can benefit small and large businesses alike. Let’s explore three main advantages of installing and maintaining a security system for your business or organization.
Deterring Theft
One of the most obvious reasons to establish a security system, which may include: surveillance cameras, automated locks, motion sensors, and access controls to restricted areas is the ability to deter thefts.
Keep in mind that burglaries can come from outside actors or employee theft. A surveillance camera that is visible and controlled by business leaders can help deter those who are looking to exploit vulnerabilities on the premises of your business.
A security system may be just enough to deter both a burglar looking to gain access as well as an employee hoping to exploit a situation. Businesses without an alarm system or video surveillance become easy targets for these two groups. The better your security system the lower your chance of losing revenue or having your business violated.
Improving Safety
As a business leader one of your top priorities is to maintain the safety of your business property. Your loyal patrons and employees deserve to work and visit a safe workplace or shop.
Security features such as cameras, fire alarms, smoke detectors, and carbon monoxide alerts can help protect your property as well as the clients, customers, and employees that keep your business successful.
Insurance Savings
If deterring burglars and safeguarding your employees and clients is not enough reason to consider installing a security system, you may want to weigh the savings you may be eligible for from your insurance company. Many agencies offer up to 20% off your premium for high end security systems that may help reduce risk of theft, damage, vandalism, and accidents.
Commercial security systems are a major decision and one not to be taken lightly. However, businesses without security alarms and systems are 4.5 times more likely to be burglarized. Don’t take those chances. Talk to one of our technicians today about steps we can take to help secure your livelihood this year.
