Access Control to Monitor Your Summer Staff

May 31, 2022

If you’re hiring new employees for the summer, you may be looking for a way to closely monitor their activity, even while you’re offsite enjoying your vacation. If so, we have a solution for you: electronic access control. An access control system from Park Security can be the oversight tool employers throughout Central Pennsylvania need to manage their summer staff more effectively. Here’s how it can help.

Replacing Your Keys

“Throwing away the key” takes on a new meaning when you have a system that replaces them entirely. With electronic access control, you’ll never need to distribute physical keys to new employees again. That means no more worrying about who’s losing their keys, or who could turn out to be untrustworthy with the key once they’re terminated.

If your business carries products that are popular commodities for theft, an access control system makes sure your employees can’t give their keys to any thieving friends or associates. Only they can enter with the activated credential they use to enter, whether you choose keycards, biometric credentials, or the users’ own smartphones.

Restricting Entry Times

What happens if an employee attempts to enter the building afterhours, or during a time that is not their scheduled shift? With an access control system in place, you can make sure they are automatically denied access to the building during these times. As the administrator, you’ll be able to restrict employee access based on times, days, or areas of the buildings.

Be sure to set all this up when you add each new employee as a user in the system, as opposed to “after the fact” once a security breach has taken place.

Reporting Their Activity

With a reliable access control solution installed, you’ll always have a record of who is coming and going. Reports about entry activity can be accessed on demand, anytime you log into your account. You’ll see who has entered, who has exited, and at what times. This is one of the best ways to manage employees from wherever you are. Whether it’s at home or on vacation, employers can log in and see all activity from their own devices.

Hiring summer staff members doesn’t have to mean sacrificing your own free time. To enjoy your summer more while making sure your business is covered, call Park Security to inquire about access control. We’re ready to help.
