Safety at venues, in particular stadiums and large
scale venues, is a business critical consideration. After a series of tragic events
at major sporting stadiums in the eighties and nineties, constant re-evaluation
of best practice regarding safety and security measures at stadiums and venues
in the UK has been undertaken.
CCTV Crowd Monitoring Systems
One of the most significant and arguably most effective development in stadium
and venue security has been the use of CCTV systems for monitoring crowds both
to monitor potential safety issues and to help tackle another blight to football
in
particular,
Hooliganism.
Large Volume Access Control
Aside from effective and efficient crowd surveillance, electronic Access controls
systems are becoming increasingly prevalent in venues.
Major Sports Stadium Experience
G4S Security Systems has a wealth of experience in providing bespoke security systems at
various sports stadiums throughout Europe. It is due to the recognised success
of these projects that G4S Security Systems is now one of the most in demand suppliers
of security systems to sports stadiums, within Europe.
Small Venue Systems
In smaller venues, such as nightclubs and concert venues CCTV systems can also
be of great value for monitoring the safety of patrons, providing evidence in
case of incidents and deterring anti-social and licence threatening behaviour
such as drug dealing. This is of value both in support of authorities such as
the police follow up problems, but also for owners in demonstrating in an incident
that their approach and procedures were appropriate.
