In the modern world, every progressive business must confront the three major workplace security issues – staff safety, asset security, and data protection. According to Balance Careers, approximately 1.5 million American workers experience workplace violence. A similar study by the US Bureau of Labor Statistics shows that more than 250 annual workplace fatalities are due to violence. Despite the high prevalence of violence at the workplace, most victims never get justice due to lack of evidence. A survey conducted by the DC Velocity found that American employers lose assets worth $50 billion annually to theft. The agency states that most of the lost items comprise valuable assets such as electronic devices and operational tools. Cyber-attacks are incessantly growing. According to Farsight, a UK based IT Company, about 10 percent of malicious data breaches are caused by physical security compromise.

How can warehouse owners ensure all-round business security? Commercial business owners can secure their businesses by installing security protocols for warehouses. These protocols can range from physical security systems to data protection strategies. Here are three strategies businesses can use to ensure warehouse security.

Surveillance systems

Businesses can provide their employees with a secure working environment by keeping track of what’s incoming, outgoing, and general happenings at the warehouse using appropriate warehouse security systems such as CCTV. Physical surveillance is a powerful tool for maintaining a high level of security in the workplace. Not only can it be used for incident tracking, but it is also the perfect preventative security measure. In other words, it can be used to retrieve vital evidence of workplace violence, and it can also be used as a strategy to discourage warehouse violence.

Besides securing employees, CCTV surveillance can help mitigate the loss of assets at the workplace. Businesses can install the systems at critical workstations such as IT rooms and warehouses where there is a high risk of losing items. These systems can help in investigating incidents and deter thefts. To provide better physical surveillance, businesses should install ultramodern monitoring systems with high-end features such as real-time reporting.

Access control

Physical access control is a vital tool in managing the security of any warehouse. Physical access control is the practice of determining and enforcing who has access to business premises and critical resources. Physical access control is critical for limiting access to vital business resources. This can help reduce the risk of stealing business/ warehouse assets. It can also help limit access to critical resources such as IT infrastructure, which, when accessed by unauthorized people, can lead to data loss. Access control can be implemented using ID-based physical constraints and biometrics around the warehouse facility.

Intrusion detection

Strong security systems must consist of alarm systems. Alarms systems are critical for pre-empting malicious activity and security breaches. For an effective security system, alarm systems should be strategically implemented at critical points around the warehouse. State-of-the-art alarm systems leverage features such as face detection.
