Some software integrates with CCTV to monitor the actions of workers in retail environments. Every action is recorded as an information block with subtitles that explain the performed operation. This helps to track the actions of workers, especially when they are making critical financial transactions, such as correcting or canceling of a sale, withdrawing money or altering personal information.

Actions which an employer may wish to monitor could include:

– Scanning of goods, selection of goods, introduction of price and quantity;

– Input and output of operators in the system when entering passwords;

– Deleting operations and modifying existing documents;

– Implementation of certain operations, such as financial statements or operations with cash;

– Moving goods, revaluation scrapping and counting;

– Control in the kitchen of fast food restaurants;

– Change of settings, reports and other official functions.

Each of these operations is transmitted with a description, allowing detailed monitoring of all actions of the operator. Some systems allow the user to search for a specific event by time of occurrence and text description, and perform statistical evaluation of operator behavior. This allows the software to predict deviations from the standard workflow and record only anomalous behavior.

The use of CCTV in the United States is less common, though increasing, and generally meets stronger opposition. In 1998, 3,000 CCTV systems were in use in New York City. There are more than 10,000 CCTV systems in Chicago.

In the last few years particularly, the percentage of people in the U.S. having installed a security-camera system has increased dramatically. Global Security Solutions with the help of Zone Tech Systems first announced the launch of IP surveillance in the U.S. security industry by partnering up with Axis Communications (an IP pioneer). Today’s CCTV market has transformed the shift towards IP-based security products and systems.
