Body Cameras for Government Officials - Record and Retain Evidence

Studies over the years have shown that body-worn cameras result in positive interactions between government officials and members of the public. They have helped reduce the frequency of complaints, shown reductions in assaults and violence towards officers and provide valuable training material through digital evidence management software.

Body-worn cameras and the software supporting them act as impartial and independent witnesses. They eliminate unfair challenges towards the council's civil enforcement officer's decision making and offer real-time information when in contact with community members.
