Is your business as well-protected as it should be? Do you really know what goes on when you're not there to see it firsthand? Running your own business is one of the most rewarding ways of earning a living, but it also leaves you with the responsibility of protecting the company and people who help you make it all possible. One of the best ways to protect your place of business, employees and customers is to integrate video surveillance into your security system, providing a watchful eye to deter crime and keep you informed. Wondering what type of role security cameras can play in your company? Here are 10 ways that you can protect your business with video surveillance.

1) Monitor Stock Rooms: Whether you're in retail or just oversee the office supply closet, installing a security camera to monitor comings, goings and product removal can greatly cut down on your losses. Video surveillance can clue you into employees who may be pilfering merchandise when they think no one is looking, or help you zone in on people who stock up on company-purchased pens, paper and printer cartridges for personal use. Surveillance cameras are also an excellent for use in, and just outside of, remote stock rooms located in the back access hallways of shopping malls. Not only do they allow you to monitor access to the stock rooms, but can also increase employees' safety when they need to make stock runs through these isolated, otherwise unseen areas.


2) Monitor Cash Handling and POS Transactions: Concerned that money is being skimmed from bank deposits, cashiers are ringing in unauthorized discounts or that your bartenders are giving away a few too many free drinks? Installing security cameras with a bird's eye view of cash registers, POS terminals and other cash handling areas will let you clearly see when business is being conducted as expected, and when you're losing money.


3) Prevent Robberies and Catch Criminals: It's a simple fact: businesses armed with video security systems are far less attractive to potential thieves than those that don't use surveillance. After all, it's a lot safer and easier to commit a crime when you have very little risk of being seen or caught. Because they silently declare "I'm watching you," conspicuous surveillance cameras are a very effective deterrent to break-ins and other illegal activity.
However, cameras aren't always a foolproof safety measure, because while most criminals are wary of being seen on video, a small percentage will still go through with their plans, anyway. But here's the good news: video surveillance helps catch thieves. In many cases, footage from business security cameras has helped police track down criminals and recover stolen property, even in a few instances where the cameras belonged to neighboring businesses.


4) Monitor Employee Conduct: Ever wonder what your employees really do when you're not around? Whether you travel frequently or just aren't stationed at the center of the action, video surveillance can be an easy and effective way to monitor on-the-job employee conduct. Placing cameras in common areas and near workspaces lets you see what's going on throughout your facility, and can help to curb excessive on-the-clock socializing and increase productivity.
