Body Worn Camera
Improving Staff Safety and Wellbeing
Body cameras worn by retail staff assist in reducing the number of incidents by deterring aggression and recording an independent account of events.
In turn, this helps improve the confidence and overall safety and wellbeing of retail workers while simultaneously reducing staff turnover and supporting training.

Body Worn Cameras are an essential element in making a significant difference to the people who use them and the industries they are utilised in:
- The ability to de-escalate situations before an altercation occurs using the front-facing screen as a deterrent.
- Provide transparent and unbiased footage of confrontational situations using the camera as an impartial witness.
- To protect those on both sides of the lens should a hostile altercation develop, providing evidence and reducing complaints.
- The functionality to simply and efficiently upload footage, view video and be safe in the knowledge that everything is securely encrypted.
- Utilise any footage obtained not only for testimony should it be required, but for training and staff development purposes in the future.
