Everyone has the right to leave home for work without fearing for their safety.
The announcement that Lidl is introducing body cameras for staff in all its UK stores is a chilling sign of the times. What is happening to our country? Why, in the aftermath of a pandemic that inspired acts of heroism from frontline workers, are we seeing a horrific rise in attacks on supermarket staff? Lidl GB is to be applauded for its commitment to worker safety, but the fact these cameras are now considered essential speaks volumes about how society has changed.
Mr Murphy recently revealed the supermarket chain has offered body-worn cameras to members of staff who need them after seeing physical assaults rise by a third in a year. He said Tesco has invested £44m in four years on security measures including door access systems, protection screens and digital radios, as well as the cameras, but called for more to be done against offenders.
