Impact on professional life (1)

Personal lives are not the only ones impacted by crime and crime prevention in the modern age – professional lives are too. Below, I have listed some of the advantages regarding the impacts of crime and crime prevention on professional lives.
  • If there is a robbery at a firm, CCTV footage can help prosecute and recover losses
              - If anyone attempts to steal products from a business, the business can spot the thief and have his or her photo planted all over the media until justice is dealt. This is through the use of CCTV, which would have recorded the perpetrator stealing the goods, and also this footage can be used as evidence in a court of law (though it would not be enough to convict by itself). Essentially this means that people would be less encouraged to steal as there is an increased likelihood of being caught.
  • CRB checks can be made on job applicants by businesses to check if any applicants have criminal pasts
              - Many establishments, be these education facilities or employers, are able to screen all of their applicants to see if any have ever had a conviction. From this, the establishment can determine which of its applicants are the best for the job on offer, and can shortlist for the best from there.
