Are Body-worn Cameras a Good Option During Rising Inflation?

Since inception the use of Body-worn cameras has risen sharply and now plays a crucial role in just about every area of industry including, Local Government, Security, Event and Stadium management, and retail, collecting tamper-proof audio-video evidence and proving themselves invaluable.

For some businesses it could be an investment they need to make, however with the talk of even higher inflation are in two minds about whether to take this step. 


Do they justify the investment?

  • The Effect of Inflation

    Inflation is ever-present but has the potential to become a threat when it grows at an exponential rate. The current sharp rise in prices demolishes the purchasing power of people and businesses alike lending businesses both large and small to re-evaluate their operations and priorities. 

    With the cost of living being driven up and even the essentials becoming unaffordable to large groups of society, a rise in certain types of crime have been shown to be linked, including anti-social behavior shoplifting, theft, insurance fraud and robbery.

  • Cost vs Need

    Although this type of solution does not stop crimes being committed, the introduction of equipment such as body-worn cameras has been shown to act as a deterrent and produce positive results wherever it has been implemented. The power to record, store and review tamper-free videos and photos has been invaluable to many industries to provide evidence whether it is for health and safety, insurance, personnel safety or criminal offences.

    In essence, it boils down to whether you believe an investment in body-worn cameras is good for business and will improve your day-to-day operations, your employees’ well-being, and provide your customers with the service they require.
