What Has Changed
In 2023, the BVG recorded an 88% decrease in attacks on employees compared to the previous year. Attacks on security personnel also fell by around 54%. Nevertheless, every attack is one too many. That is why the BVG is relying on innovative technologies such as body cams to optimise the deployment of its security personnel. The effectiveness of body cameras has been proven in an evaluation study. Learn more about this from Dipl.-Psych. Dipl. oec. Udo Kluttig from LOGO Bochum: LOGO Bochum During the twelve-month test phase, at least one person in each pre-trained team will be equipped with a body cam. The small and lightweight devices weigh only about 180 grams and record video sequences. The cameras are not continuously activated, but are only switched on after an audible warning and only in necessary situations. The data is stored for up to 48 hours in accordance with data protection regulations.
