Thieves know that many construction sites and industrial park businesses shut down over long holiday weekends. That’s why CCSO offers the following tips to keep work areas safe.* Make your site or business as secure as possible before going home for the weekend.
* Don’t leave tools, equipment or materials lying around unsecured. Pay special attention to copper wire and fittings.
* Check all security hardware (doors, windows, locks, lights and alarm system) and make sure it’s working safely.
* Don’t leave valuables in plain view inside parked vehicles.
* Remove all wheeled vehicles and equipment from the site or disable them and keep them in place.
* Secure fuel storage tanks and use locking gas caps.
* Keep an inventory of all tools and equipment and mark it so it can be identified if it is stolen.
Don’t leave anything on a job site that you don’t have to.
