Access Control
In most businesses, security is in charge of access control. Security monitors points of access to your property to ensure anyone entering is screened before they come in.
Due to the new changes this means security would also be checking if the correct PPE is being worn. During these challenging times, it is more important than ever to identify everyone who enters your premises.
