Visitors
If you have visitors to your office never leave them unattended and make sure all guests sign in on arrival.

If you do see someone in the office and they look like they don’t belong there, then ask or check with a colleague.
Valuables
If you have popped out on your lunch break for some Christmas shopping, make sure you think about where you leave it. If you leave it on the counter it could be stolen. However, leaving it on show in your car could result in someone breaking into your vehicle.
Working Late
If you are the last one to leave in an evening, double check that all the doors and windows and shut and locked. Double check any CCTV cameras are working and recording, set intruder alarms and double check your smoke cloak is set and ready to go if there was an intruder in the workplace.

The potential thief will not be able to see anything, completely lose their orientation and flee the scene quickly. In the meantime the alarm will be set off and the business can be protected.
