Escorting visitors and ensuring they follow security policies
Visitors should be escorted according to organisational policies. This reduces the risk of unauthorised access to controlled areas, systems or data.
Why is it important?
Within a workplace, people have direct access to systems and sensitive documents. Visitors may also be able to access systems and documents while they are there.
Escorting visitors and making sure they follow security policies helps prevent harm. It also ensures the safety of visitors.
