Jeepers! Office Creepers

by MyNTX on Dec 26, 2008 at 10:52 PM Filed in Business Security | Commercial Security | Small Business Security

5 Low Tech / Low Cost ways of protecting your office or suite from Office Creepers.

  1. Require everyone to sign in and out when they leave the building. Yes, your employees will hate it, but it has to be 100% in order for it to be effective. This is also helpful in the event of an emergency.
  2. Require every employee to present a customized PVC Photo ID badge when signing in daily. This ID badge should be worn prominently throughout the day while at the office (not in a purse or wallet). Stop anyone you see in your office without a badge. Owners and managers - this starts with you. I have seen many security measures blown off by management only to become the "Program of the day" by employees.
  3. Issue a customized ID badge to be worn prominently to every visitor. You could take this to the next level by having badges color coded by different days of the week to assist in identifying an impostor. (Blue = Monday, Green = Fridays etc).
  4. Provide employees a place to lock personal belongings (i.e. a desk drawer or locker).
  5. Incorporate security and safety awareness in weekly staff meetings. Office Creepers not only impact your employees, but your customers, and ultimately, your company as well. No one wants to make a call to a customer to inform him or her that a laptop with their private data has been stolen.
NTX Security also recommends video surveillance to assist deterring and documenting Office Creepers.
  • Ensure that you have a face shot of all visitors of your building or suite.
  • Every entry and exit should have a  camera with an effective angle and clear shot.
  • Place cameras in all common areas and main hallways .
  • At all entry / exits and periodically throughout the facility, post that Video Surveillance is in use.
