CCTV has been described as an invaluable tool for companies and cold help companies avoid making business insurance claims.
Tom Reeve, editor of securitynewsdesk.com, said video surveillance equipment is always beneficial in terms of crime prevention.
However, he said it also has advantages for health and safety, as it helps firms identify potential incidents before they occur.
Although business insurance policies often pay out in the event of an employee accident, prevention is always better than cure.
If accidents and injuries do happen, CCTV footage can be used as evidence to show what actually transpired.
Mr Reeve added that CCTV can have benefits for marketing teams within organisations.
"For example, a product manager could dial in remotely to a CCTV system and look at the number of people that are stopping to look at a particular display of products," he explained.
"So there's a number of different benefits which can be gained from it."
