In
a modern-day society where crime is ever on the increase and Police resources
are stretched to the limits the Police Service in general cannot afford the
time (in their limited budgets) to properly investigate crimes committed in
and around the workplace or to regularly patrol the property of individuals
or Companies. With the exception of very serious cases, internal crime within
a Company is very often not regarded as a Police matter and is left with the
Company’s management to sort out and rectify.
As management is expected to
be responsible for securing and protecting its own premises this responsibility
could be delegated to the Security Company/Officer in many areas which could
save the Company thousands £ in both the short and long term.
Below is a non-exhaustive list of scenarios where the
deployment of Security Officers could alleviate and prevent crime occurring
within the workplace.
Serious internal pilferage
cannot only eat away a Company’s profits by making it less competitive in the
market place; it could also cause late deliveries and loss of orders.
A serious fire, whether
started deliberately or by accident could completely finish a Company.
Acts of vandalism can also
have a devastating effect on business.
In an ever-competitive world industrial espionage is a means open to for unscrupulous competitors to gain insight into a Company’s affairs.
Security Officers can therefore assist Client Management in both the prevention of crime and the detection of offenders committing those crimes.
