Toronto is booming. With that boom comes new businesses and opportunity, and of course, construction sites. Each site can attract seasoned thieves, and a chain-link fence won’t be enough to keep them out.
Recently, an independent survey of 100 construction companies found that there are an average of 2 construction equipment thefts per site per year! Each theft knocked a company back $30,000 on average, and over 50% of stolen property was never recovered.
When theft occurs, the items stolen are never the only loss.
- Employee morale drops. Project managers and supervisors now have the burden of dealing with the aftermath of a theft.
- The job can be delayed until equipment is replaced. Who has time for that?
Construction site theft has rampaged Ontario, costing businesses $15-$20 million every year.
