Visitor Management Systems: Strengthening Workplace Access Control

Why Visitor Access Matters

In today’s workplaces, managing who enters your building is more important than ever. Whether it’s guests, vendors, or contractors, having a clear system to monitor and control visitor access helps prevent unauthorized entry, protect employees, and secure sensitive areas. Safeguard Security offers modern visitor management solutions to keep Canadian businesses safe and organized.

What Is a Visitor Management System?

A visitor management system (VMS) is a digital tool or software that helps businesses record, track, and manage all non-employee visitors. Unlike traditional paper logs, VMS systems are secure, efficient, and often integrated with access control features like ID scanning and badge printing.

Benefits of Using a VMS

• Improved Security: Know exactly who’s in your building at any time.
• Faster Check-Ins: Guests can sign in digitally with tablets or kiosks.
• Data Records: Easily track visit history for auditing or emergency use.
• Badge Printing: Print visitor IDs with access levels clearly marked.
• Emergency Notifications: Quickly alert or account for visitors during lockdowns or evacuations.
