Business Security Facts and Figures
As a business owner, a break in and burglary at your business premises could spell disaster. However, there are some interseting facts about burglaries at places of work.
Security Precautions for Businesses
You and your staff can get peace-of-mind by taking some of these facts on board as well as the necessary security precautions.
- Around 60% of burglars used forcible entry to gain access.
- 30% entered the premises through an unlocked door, window or other opening without resorting to force.
- In 70% of burglaries the burglar gains entry through a door.
- Premises are more than twice as likely to be burgled if they’ve been burgled in the previous four years.
- Many burglaries are not pre-planned, they’re carried out by opportunists who discover an open door, window or unguarded valuables in full view.
- Visible security measures, such as alarm boxes or CCTV cameras, are shown to reduce the chance of a property being targeted in a burglary.
- If you are the victim of a burglary and don’t take proper security measures afterwards, it is more likely you will be a victim again at a future date.
