CCTV monitoring
1.2. CCTV monitors the exterior and interior working areas of company buildings 24
hours a day and this data is continuously recorded.
1.3. Camera locations are chosen to minimise viewing of spaces not relevant to the
legitimate purpose of the monitoring. As far as practically possible, CCTV
cameras will not focus on private homes, gardens or other areas of private
property.
1.4. Surveillance systems currently do not record sound.
1.5. Images are monitored by authorised personnel mainly during working
hours or when an alarm is activated.
1.6. Staff using surveillance systems will be given appropriate training to ensure they
understand and observe the legal requirements related to the processing of
relevant data.
How we will operate any CCTV
1.7. Where CCTV cameras are placed in the workplace, we will ensure that
signs are displayed at the entrance of the surveillance zone to alert
individuals that their image may be recorded.
1.8. We will ensure that live feeds from cameras and recorded images are only viewed
by approved members of staff whose role requires them to have access to such
data, including assisting in operations, to determine unattended areas or releasing
vehicles from the weighbridge to the operational area. This may also include HR
staff or approved consultants involved with performance, disciplinary or grievance
matters.
