How to Protect a Worksite from Intruders

construction workers on plan

There is a lot that goes on at a construction site. With heavy machinery, equipment, tools, weather, and unstable materials, the hazards and risks abound. Unfortunately, not everyone sees it that way. Trespassing and defacement of a worksite is a common problem for construction companies. Protect your worksite from intruders by surveilling the premises, putting up a fence, and discouraging theft.

Surveil the Premises 

One of the most important things you can do to protect your worksite from intruders is set up surveillance on the premises. Cameras are often an intimidator for intruders. They do not want to be caught on tape doing something they shouldn’t. Video surveillance also helps you identify the culprits and seek justice for trespassing and causing harm to your worksite. Surveillance can protect you from potential lawsuits if an injury or defacement of property does occur. For insurance protection, liability, and identification means, you should have 24/7 surveillance on your worksite.

Put Up a Fence 

Putting up a fence around your worksite keeps the project and workers safe from trespassers. A fence prevents passersby from accidentally entering the site and being hurt by equipment. A fence also establishes a privacy screen and clear boundary for outsiders to stay away. Even animals can be deterred by putting up a fence. A great feature of construction sites is that the fences can be temporary. Temporary fences are easy to install and can be easily relocated if needed. A fence can ward off unwanted visitors and give your employees the security they need to complete the job successfully.

Discourage Theft 

An unsecured worksite is an open invitation to both criminals and vandalizers. Expensive equipment, scrap metal, and other valuables that are exposed can pose a risk to protecting your worksite. An intruder can immediately create an unsafe situation by tampering with material, tools, and machinery that has been left out. Make it a point to remove anything that has value or could be tempting. Lock up machinery, put away tools, and strive to keep your worksite clean. This will discourage tampering with your equipment and reduce the risk of incidents.

As an organization, you have the responsibility to always keep your site safe. Protect your worksite from intruders by surveilling the premises, putting up a fence, and discouraging theft. This will protect you, your employees, your worksite, and any independent parties involved.
