Factory Security Checklist
Factories
are in the business of making money but you can’t do that if your property is
open to security concerns. You need to
know how to make sure your property is secure from any and all potential
issues. Today we are going to provide
you with a security checklist that will help you to ensure that you are
protected from anything that might arise.
Access Control
All of
your security steps won’t mean anything if just anyone can get into your
factory. You need to setup access
control in order to prevent criminals or other issues from happening. Access control can be as simple as high
security locks on your doors. But they
can be enhanced by having a keycard system setup. With keycards you can easily determine who
goes where and who has been where.
Security Services
What
happens when there is a security issue on your property? You need security services to respond to the
security concern and handle it as appropriately. Sometimes that can be having a force to call
law enforcement and sometimes that means having a force their to protect your
employees. It could also mean having
someone to escort staff off the property after being fired. There are a large variety of security firms
to choose from. Some companies also
choose to have internal security so there isn’t an outside force working.
Staff Awareness
Security
begins with the people that you already have at your factory. All of the staff that you have can play a big
role in your security. To ensure that
they can help you, staff awareness should be encouraged. Teaching your staff what to look for when it
comes to security is a start. They
should also know what to do if there is a security concern and who to report it
to.
Some of
the security measures that you put in place will be accepted by your staff
while some of them they will think aren’t essential. It is important that you educate them about
why each of the security measures you put into place are essential.
Security Alarms
If someone
breaks in or goes where they are not supposed to in your factory you need to be
alerted. A security alarm system will
help you with that. A security alarm
system can be compromised of a variety of different devices that will detect
movement, intrusion, or even breaking of glass.
These systems can be set up to notify you, your security team, a
monitoring company, or even the police of security concerns.
Security Cameras
When it
comes to securing a process very few devices have as many purposes as securitycameras. These crafty devices allow you
to monitor and record everything that happens on the property. And not just security issues. You will also be able to capture safety
issues, internal theft, and quality control issues. For all of these reasons, security cameras
are essential to your factory security checklist.
For
factories that need security camera systems they can’t install them
themselves. This is because security camera systems need a specialized installation process. That includes wiring, mounting, positioning,
and even setting up the NVR. If a
company wants their supervisors, managers, or security to be able to view the
cameras from their computers/phones, that will also need to be set up.
