There are basically two ways to provide protection for any business or building, and that is with technology, as in alarm systems, cameras, etc., or with personnel who literally “stand guard” over the premises.

The decision will largely depend on the type of building, size and budget of the business, and whether employees’ safety needs to be safeguarded.
- Do you have employees who work late in the evening and must cross a dark parking lot to go home? If so, hiring security personnel may be necessary, at least for the hours after dark and until the last employee is safely in their vehicle.
- Depending on the area and location of the building, the employees’ vehicles may also need to be guarded, or kept in a secured
