AfricaScope has compiled a South African crime dataset that is able to effectively highlight the existing and potential types of crime that might someday play an unwanted role in your business procedures. Whether it’s the ability to prevent such crimes from occurring in the first place or an act of preventing existing issues surrounding crime, every business needs to be fully aware of how they can protect their valuable employees and business assets.

The 29 categories are based upon aspects of property, social fabric and violence. Key indicators include actual figures of incident per crime category, ratios per 100 000 people and a national average comparison all seen within the spatial boundaries of South Africa’s 1 138 police stations. The Crime Profiles dataset contains figures on crimes such as:
The result is a strategic approach to the impact that crime can have on your business processes and assets, risk planning and optimized business locations.
