The Sharjah Chamber of Commerce & Industry (SCCI), in cooperation with Sharjah Police, has launched a community awareness campaign about the security of the facilities in Sharjah’s industrial zones, under the theme “Your business safety is a key to its flourishment”
The campaign, which lasts for a whole year, aims to raise awareness among owners of industrial establishments with the most important measures that must be followed to enhance the security and safety of their facilities, which contributes to reducing crime rates, protecting against theft accidents, and enhancing a sense of security and safety.
The session touched on the most important measures that should be followed to safeguard industrial facilities. This includes keeping an eye on security and safety systems and procedures, installing high-quality surveillance cameras that cover and monitor the largest area possible, installing fire alarm systems, hiring qualified and well-trained security guards, and making sure that the facility is closed properly at the end of official working hours.
Lauding the tremendous efforts exerted by Sharjah Police to ensure security stability, as an essential factor and catalyst for economic prosperity and sustainable development, Ziyad Mahmoud Al Hajji, member of the board of directors of the SCCI, pointed to the importance of the campaign in enhancing awareness about the measures that have to be taken to protect facilities and strengthen stability in industrial areas.
Ibrahim Rashid Al Jarwan, director of the economic relations and marketing department at the SCCI, affirmed the Chamber’s keenness to enhance the effective partnership between security authorities and business sector facilities to create a safer environment and to augment Sharjah’s pioneering position as a safe economic destination.
In turn, Lalu Samuel, chairman of the representative committee of the industry sector business group, highlighted the importance of the campaign in enhancing knowledge of the security and safety measures in industrial facilities and fostering a safe environment for production, transportation and storage.
