The security of your office is a priority
Your commercial building is the hub where all the important information your company possesses is kept. It is obviously used on a daily basis by you and your employees for working purposes, but have you ever thought about the security of your work and valuable information, and what happens to it after you leave the office for the night?
The chances are good that if you are the last one to leave the office at night you will lock the doors after yourself; maybe your doors lock themselves automatically upon shutting, or the cleaners will do it once they have finished; you at least know that someone will be securing the premises once everyone has finished for the evening. But what then? If your company deals with sensitive information, or a lot of money passes through the building; and this is common knowledge; there could be further security concerns once the office is shut. If a professional thief wants access to what is inside your facility, a locked door is of little concern. For this reason it is important that more security measures are instituted throughout your premises in order to ensure your information is as safe as possible.
One of the most fundamental security systems that you can apply to your building is a good alarm system. If an attempted break in occurs, the alarm is raised and the chances of any potential thieves being caught is significantly increased. Of course, it is not guaranteed that no information will be stolen, and it is no guarantee that the police will arrive in time to catch the thief (or thieves). For this reason it is a good move to install a proper full time security team on your premises.
The cost to you and your company could be far greater than the price of security guards and CCTV if sensitive, valuable information or files are taken, so it could certainly prove to be a good investment in the long run. By ensuring that your facility is carefully monitored at all hours of the day, it is possible to prevent any break ins occurring at all, or at least it is more likely that stolen objects are recovered if you are aware of them being taken; plus prosecution is much easier when thieves are caught on camera and the crime is provable. All in all, from both a financial perspective and for convenience, security should be a priority for your company.
Whether your company deals with sensitive, valuable information or not, it is a good idea to ensure your office and equipment is secure and efficient, and security management is an important aspect of facilities management.
