Claremont Business Watch Program

Business Watch: A Collaborative Effort for a Safer Claremont

Business Watch is a proactive crime prevention program sponsored by the Claremont Police Department and the Claremont Chamber of Commerce. This initiative is specifically designed to:

• Establish a Business-to-Business Communications Network
  Business Watch fosters a reliable communication system among businesses, commercial centers, and office complexes in Claremont. By staying connected, business owners and employees can quickly share critical security updates, report suspicious activity, and work together to maintain a safer environment.
• Educate Business Owners and Employees on Crime Prevention
  Business Watch provides valuable educational resources, including crime prevention strategies, security best practices, and guidelines for handling various safety concerns. Participating businesses receive materials on topics such as burglary prevention, fraud awareness, cyber security, and emergency preparedness to enhance workplace safety.
• Increase Visibility and Deter Criminal Activity
  A strong and well-publicized Business Watch program helps create a high-visibility deterrent against crime. When businesses actively participate, it signals to potential offenders that the community is vigilant and committed to safety.

Crime prevention is a shared responsibility and cannot fall solely on law enforcement. The dedication of business owners, managers, and employees plays a crucial role in reducing crime and maintaining a secure commercial environment in Claremont.

For more information or to get involved, business owners are encouraged to contact the Claremont Chamber of Commerce or the Claremont Police Department.
