2MCCTV.com Issues Advisory Warning: Avoid Liability Issues in the Workplace with Security Cameras

GRAND PRAIRIE, Texas, Aug. 8, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- 2MCCTV.com has issued an advisory warning to businesses of potential liability issues if surveillance systems are not installed on their premises, saying security cameras and hidden camera surveillance systems help prevent common potential business liabilities such as injuries, harassment, theft, and drug use.  Mouaz Allababidi, CEO of 2MCCTV.com, explains:

"In most companies and organizations, just one lawsuit as a result of injury, harassment, theft, or drug use is one lawsuit too many.  No matter the size of firm, lawsuits are costly, time consuming, and dirties the firm's reputation, even if the issue is settled out of court. Without liability-mitigating security cameras a legal judgment could take a company from profit to loss, or worse, from solvency to bankruptcy!"

Workplace injuries are easily preventable through effective deployment of surveillance cameras.  Common placements for liability-preventing security cameras include areas that have construction activity, high traffic, and heavy machinery, as well as areas that store explosive, biological, or chemically-hazardous materials.

"An IP camera or two in high traffic areas helps prevent collision or injury accidents, whereas chained security cameras near heavy machinery, explosive, bio, or chemically-hazardous materials help ensure personnel are operating machinery safely and handling hazardous materials according to regulations. It doesn't cost much, and can save lives," said Allababidi.

Workplace harassment, whether of a racial, sexual, gender, religious, or other illegal nature not only makes for an unpleasant working environment, but opens companies up to fines and civil lawsuits if harassment is not taken care of with swift action.  Security cameras are capable of monitoring potential harassment, allowing management to take appropriate measures.

"Even if the owners of a company are unaware of the harassment going on in their ranks, these organizations are still legally responsible for any harassment infractions.  Owners and officers may also find themselves under scrutiny for allowing harassment to happen under their noses. Better to play it safe and have security cameras installed!" said Allababidi.
