The opportunities and limits of Body Worn Cameras?
Manage episode 417957359 series 3572864
Body worn cameras have been widely heralded by the security sector for generating a range of benefits, not least the fact they provide evidence to support interactions preventing – or at least reducing the chances – of frivolous claims of malpractice. They have also been welcomed for giving the security personnel who use them confidence in tricky situations. Yet, others have viewed them as an intrusion on people’s privacy, some have said that customers in some settings have complained about being watched. In some cases the quality of the footage has been questioned and there is a concern they can be abused. So what is the potential for body worn cameras?
This webinar will discuss:
• The value of body worn cameras in different contexts
• The negative aspects of these cameras and how these can be managed
