Industrial security worldwide has acquired a prominent role, not only in the protection of workers, but also as an essential pillar for the sustainable development of companies. Implementing effective preventive measures and advanced technologies not only minimizes workplace accidents, but also contributes to employee well-being and improves brand reputation in the global market.
Why is industrial safety so important worldwide?
The International Labor Organization (ILO) estimates that the costs associated with workplace accidents and occupational diseases represent 4% of the world’s gross domestic product (GDP). This financial impact highlights the need to invest in advanced technology to mitigate potential risks. Below, we explain why this economic effort is important.
- Labor protection. The main objective is to prevent work accidents, illnesses and injuries that occur in these environments to guarantee greater protection.
- Prevention of economic losses. By investing in safety, companies significantly reduce these direct and indirect costs associated with accidents, such as medical care, loss of production or property damage.
- Increased productivity. Job protection and safety translates into better job performance, therefore, increasing productivity.
- Legal compliance. Failure to comply with labor regulations entails economic and legal sanctions.
- Improves business reputation. A company committed to industrial safety offers an image of responsibility and commitment.
In this sense, Microsegur positions itself as a strategic partner by offering advanced technological solutions that adjust to modern needs. Some of this technology includes video analysis systems for perimeter security, autonomous CCTV or access and body temperature control, among others. In addition, he stands out for carrying out security projects in complex environments.
Microsegur comprehensive security projects for industrial protection
Our company stands out in the field of industrial safety for offering innovative and personalized solutions for various sectors. This is possible thanks to a human team and the necessary infrastructure to carry out engineering projects adapted to different needs. Below, we offer you some of the initiatives that we have implemented in different parts of the world, including our country.
Spain
Microsegur, which has been recognized as an Innovative SME, stands out for several actions in our country. The company has carried out very important projects in Spain, such as the protection of the Presidential Offices and Repsol Data Processing Center, where it was responsible for the maintenance of CCTV systems and access control for almost 20 years. It is also worth highlighting the implementation of security systems in the Canal Isabel II facilities in Madrid.
Belgium
Microsegur has played a key role in the implementation of security systems for the tram project in Liège (Belgium). This project has improved public transport infrastructure in the region with advanced security solutions such as CCTV video surveillance with a centralized video system on platforms, crossings, streets and car parks. It also includes the access control system and a protection system against cyber attacks.
Angola
Our company has also consolidated its presence in Africa with the execution of key projects in countries such as Angola. It is worth mentioning the project carried out at the Dondo and Cassoalala electrical substations, through the engineering, supply and installation of a video surveillance system (CCTV) to protect the perimeter.
Egypt
Another of the large-scale international projects is the one carried out in the Benban Solar Park, in Aswan.
This infrastructure, with a capacity of 1.8 GW, is the largest in Africa (37.2 km²), housing more than seven million solar panels. Microsegur’s participation includes the design, supply, installation and commissioning of a perimeter CCTV security system based on thermal cameras and thermal domes.
France
In France, our contribution has been essential in the protection of the Calenzana Solar Plant, located in Corsica. This plant, with a capacity of 2.2 MW, is one of the most important photovoltaic installations in the region.
The project included both the design, supply, installation and commissioning of a perimeter video surveillance system. This system has thermal and conventional cameras and thermal domes to offer efficient management.
Chile
In this Latin American country, the company has carried out significant projects, such as the protection of the Bolero Solar Plant, which is located in the Atacama Desert, with a capacity of 146 MW. Microsegur carried out the installation and commissioning of the general access control system, as well as the fire protection system in the transformation centers.
This work not only stands out for the ability to respond to this vast extension, but also for the management of the work team.
Barbados
The protection of critical infrastructure in Barbados is another of the company’s representative actions. Renewable energy projects mainly stand out, such as the protection of the St. Lucy Solar Plant, with a capacity of 10 MW. Microsegur carried out the installation and start-up of the comprehensive security system, in addition to being in charge of the direction and control of the engineering work, as well as the supply of equipment and materials.
