Retail Security

A risk assessment should be carried out to identify the potential risk associated with the storage and handling of cash and valuables on any BBC premises as part of the general building security risk assessment process. The risk assessment will lead to identifying the processes by which cash and valuables can be securely held on the premises.

 

The same security risk assessment should be able to identify the way that service partners or contractors handle cash and valuables on BBC premises, and how that impacts on BBC staff and buildings.

 

All cash and valuables that are the property (whether temporary or permanent) of the BBC must, when not in use for BBC business purposes, be secured in a purpose-manufactured container, which must be non-portable and preferably secured to the solid fabric of the building.  Where possible, large sums of cash must be banked daily and cash should not be held on site during weekends.
