AKME Securitas vital security advice
It’s a fact, the vast majority of home and business intruder activations are false alarms. Not only is it inconvenient for staff to be called outside of working hours to attend a site for a false alarm, but it is disruptive to the business’s productivity the next day. We, at AKME Securitas, have found that a business’s key holder are prime members of staff and as such, the cost to a business in financial and human resource terms can be intrusive when relying on staff to respond to intruder alarm activations. The same can be said of home key holders if on holiday or just on a night out.
THE PRINCIPLE CONSIDERATIONS OF A KEY HOLDER
- Are you able to respond 24/7, in the middle of the night if necessary?
- How will this impact your family life if often you are waking up partners?
- You are out on a Saturday night, have you got the keys and how will you get to site?
- What are you walking into? Have you been trained to deal with all eventualities?
- What will you do if there is someone inside the premises?
- How will being stuck on a site all night impact your productivity the next day?
- How will you remember to keep your monitoring company abreast of any changes to your contact details and availability?
- What happens when you go on holiday?
KEY HOLDERS ARE AT RISK – CONSIDER THESE STATS
- Property crime accounts for the majority of recorded crime statistics recorded by the Police 2009/2010 (78% and 70% respectively)
- Violence, including robbery, accounts for about a fifth (22%).
- There were 2000 instances of recorded robbery during 2009.
- Over 5% of all intruder alarm activations are not false alarms, meaning key holders are walking into potentially very serious incidents.
- Most intruder alarm activations are false alarms and occur during unsociable hours (meaning your most valuable resource’s (i.e. staff’s) time is being wasted when responding in the middle of the night).
