Did you know that CCTV remains the main deterrent in preventing crime? When it comes to running a bar or pub in Ireland you need to make sure your premises, your people, your stock and your customers are safe.
CCTV has been proven to reduce anti-social behaviour significantly. It is seen as a deterrent for those seeking to cause mischief. CCTV will reduce vandalism as those involved do not want to risk getting caught. CCTV will also be a watchful eye to deter employee theft and illegal onsite activity .
Unfortunately, in Ireland there are too many bogus insurance claims against innocent parties. CCTV is a useful tool in relation to bogus legal claims as the activity is recorded and available for use in legal proceedings. Plus, there is the added benefit that CCTV can reduce insurance premiums as well as reducing your business risks.
Do you know what is required to be compliant with the GDPR when using CCTV? This can be a worry for business owners that need to share the footage with a third party. This can be for legal proceedings or just in the general operations of the business.
You have obligations for informing the public that recording is taking place. If you are sharing footage with third party, there are redaction considerations to consider. There are laws around storage, retention of footage and its destruction.
