One of the most important reasons to have security guards for your business is to provide peace of mind to employees.
Your employees face numerous dangers every day, even if they don’t realize it. From a disgruntled ex-employee coming back in to someone lurking in the parking lot, workplaces aren’t always safe.
Constantly worrying about their own safety and security isn’t going to make employees happy. Instead, set their minds at ease with on-site security guards, among other security measures.
They Make Your Business Successful
Why spend the extra on security for your employees? It’s not just about keeping your business property safe. It’s about securing your most important asset – your employees. After all, it’s the employees that help make your business successful.
Without them, you wouldn’t be able to handle the daily tasks that attract and retain customers. If employees don’t feel safe, they’re more likely to leave. This means you’re spending all your time on finding new talent. Give them peace of mind and they’ll stay and help your business continue to grow.
Less Stress Equals More Productivity
While any job comes with stress, employees don’t deserve to feel stressed about security at work. They might stress about getting a report in on time or landing a big client, but they shouldn’t have to worry about someone dangerous walking in or being afraid to walk to their cars after work.
Stress in the workplace causes a major decrease in productivity. Don’t your employees deserve a little less stress in their lives? Taking away at least some of the stress helps them to enjoy their job more and be more productive.
Everyone Deserves To Feel Safe
Everyone should feel safe, even at work. Employees are focused on doing their jobs to the best of their ability. While you provide a pay check and other benefits, that still doesn’t help them feel any safer while actually at work.
Businesses owe it to their hard working employees to give them peace of mind in the security department. From preventing violence between employees to ensuring an ex-employee doesn’t cause trouble, security guards help provide a much safer environment. It may sound simple, but your employees appreciate knowing that you care about their security.
Peace Of Mind Is Good For Their Health
Any major security incident could affect your employees’ mental health for years to come. Without security guards, an incident could leave employees with low self-esteem, anxiety, problems concentrating and even PTSD.
By having guards to provide additional security, employees may never have to experience a traumatic security incident. This gives them peace of mind and helps them to have better mental health. As a result, they’re also able to perform more efficiently.
They Shouldn’t Fear Their Own Dream Job
Many employees have worked hard their entire lives to land their dream job. They’ve spent tens of thousands of dollars to go to college and learn the skills needed to be an asset to your company. They’ve sacrificed their valuable time to interview, train and become part of your staff. They’ve likely even worked overtime, even when it wasn’t convenient for them.
Your employees deserve peace of mind when it comes to their jobs. They’ve worked for years to get where they are. The last thing they want to do is finally have the chance to do what they love only to feel too unsafe to stay.
Employees shouldn’t be afraid of their dream jobs just because of poor security. All it takes is a security strategy with surveillance cameras, security guards and electronic entrances to give employees the peace they need to do their jobs better and enjoy it more.
