Abstract
We investigate a planned physical security intervention at a partner organisation site, to determine the potential individual cost of security upon employees when replacing a secure door with a turnstile. Systems modelling techniques are applied to model the lobby area of the site, and to guide data collection to situate the model. Managers at the site were consulted during preference elicitation to identify meaningful model parameters. Direct observation of regular employee behaviours from pre-recorded CCTV footage provided localised data: 1800 sequences of behaviour events were logged over one working day for approximately 600 employees and visitors. This included responses to security events, such as returning to the card reader or moving to a different turnstile. Model results showed that if one turnstile was implemented at the observed site, an average of 0.5 seconds would be added to individual entry times for employees, amounting to over sixty hours for the site as a whole over a year. Three turnstiles approach the time cost of a secure door.
