How often does a store post a “Smile, You’re on Camera!” sign at the front door? These companies know there are various ways to deter people from stealing from their establishments. For example, full security camera surveillance systems provide the ability to oversee the operations and catch somebody stealing in the act. An organization, the National Association for Shoplifting Prevention (NASP), explains that $13 billion worth of product is taken from retailers annually. They also say that 1 in 11 people will commit the crime of shoplifting at some point in their lives, Yet, only 10 million people have been caught shoplifting in the last five years. Worse, only 1 in 48 shoplifters is caught, and about fifty percent caught are prosecuted by the police. Obviously, shopping lifting is a problem across America. That’s the case in Florida where we at Pogo Security aim to help businesses protect themselves from theft.

Call Us: 877.590.0040 Address: 5000 SW 52ND STREET, BAY 513, DAVIE, FL, 33314 https://crmrunner.com Protect your Recreation Business with Additional Security Measures Recreation centers take shape and form in park districts, community centers, hospitals, gyms, fitness center, schools, churches – wherever people congregate in a public place to take on fun. Even baseball stadiums, pool halls, swimming pools, and bowling alleys are considered recreation centers. These types of businesses and agencies require different types of security as compared to your average home, store, or business. Entry points and exists need to be monitored. Assigning security to monitor entrances and exits is an important part of any agency safety plan. Staff can monitor this and respond to any issue, yet a video surveillance system and access controls system can add layers of protection. If every person who enters and exists is recorded, you team knows who is in your facility and for how long. In the cases of missing children, damaged property, or emergency medical events, this information can be especially critical. In recreation agencies where children participate in activities, there is a higher demand for accountability on who is entering the facility. Secure your facilities when closed. Recreation agencies are designed to be fun places, and sometimes this means that people want to return or enter when it is closed. Some recreation employees have fond memories of a time they “broke into” a recreation center to play basketball afterhours, for example. Even if it was in good fun, breaking and entering is hardly a victimless crime, especially if property is damaged, somebody is injured, or equipment goes missing. Access Control Systems give a degree of accountability, notifying you and authorities if someone without access attempts to enter the premises. Even in the case of a rogue employing enjoying the facility when it is supposed to be closed means employers have a log of when access was granted. For facilities that have valuable equipment or that can be particularly dangerous, like a swimming pool, access control is a critical tool. Security technology today allows for access via many methods including keycodes, finger prints, and identification cards. Check with the Pogo Security team to see which option will fit best with your agency’s needs and budgets. Video surveillance is key. Video surveillance provides more protection to recreation-based venues where unexpected events are bound to happen. People participating in recreation activities may be more likely to damage equipment or hurt themselves. Video surveillance provides the insight on how to these events occurred so that the correct parties are held responsible. For those in need for security for outdoor venues like skateparks, swimming pools, and soccer fields, this footage is especially valuable if somebody accesses your property outside of operating hours.
