Unarmed Security
You’ve invested a lot of time and energy into successfully managing all aspects of your company. Your accounting department is top-notch overseeing the financial aspects of the business, your marketing is on point and your employees are excellent. Sounds like your business should be thriving, but why is your bottom line decreasing?
Companies like yours may be making serious and costly security mistakes by not working with an unarmed security guard service. Top 3 mistakes are as follows:
1) Thinking Employees Won’t Steal from You
You may not know your employees as well as you think you do. According to employee theft statistics, 75% of employees have stolen from their employer at least once. Expensive laptops, construction materials, and merchandise may be too tempting for some employees. You’re leaving your company open to theft by not hiring unarmed security officers from a top-notch security guard service like Safeway Security Services. Our security guards watch your premises and are a visible deterrent to would-be thieve and burglars.
2) Believing your Workplace is already Safe
You may believe that because your building’s location is in a low crime area that you and your employees are safe. No matter how safe you think your workplace is, there are no guarantees that you or your business will never be a target for criminals. You could reduce the risk of harm by hiring unarmed guards to work on the premises. As one of the best security guard companies in the U.S., our security guards are well-trained to look for danger and react quickly to help prevent potentially harmful situations.
3) Neglecting to Include Security While Strategic Planning
Providing proper security measures for your business is often overlooked during strategic planning. Cost is always a factor when planning any business expenditure, but by not hiring unarmed security guards you may be costing your company more money. According to the 2016 National Retail Security Survey (NRSS), shoplifting accounted for 39% of the reported loss of inventory (shrink) in 2015. Replacing stolen merchandise and equipment, legal and insurance costs, and lost productivity could be exorbitant compared to the cost of hiring guards. At Safeway Security, we can help assess and accommodate your security needs.
Can your company afford to ignore the consequences of not hiring unarmed security guards? Be smart. Plan for your security needs. Contact Safeway Security Service today!
