News Analysis: British Standard 8593 for Body-Worn Video British Standard 8593:2017 focusing on body-worn video cameras backed by industry British Standard 8593 delivers a common framework to boost public trust in the understanding of where and when bodyworn video can be employed, with the document providing technical and operational recommendations for its appropriate and proportionate deployment and use. The new British Standard was drawn up to address a gap in guidance due to the differences between the use of CCTV and bodyworn video, and also with a view to avoiding any repeat of the privacy concerns associated with the widespread roll-out of the former. The UK is widely believed to be the most surveilled state in the world. BS 8593:2017 covers planning and operational recommendations, outlining the need for body-worn video’s deployment to be based on legitimate reasons, and particularly so in terms of undertaking those all-important privacy impact assessments. Anne Hayes, head of market development for governance and resilience at the BSI, explained: “During the development of BS 8593, it was agreed that public confidence in the operation and management of body-worn video was and is critical. Balancing safety, security and privacy matters is a central concern. The involvement of both security and privacy groups shows that British Standards can deliver industry consensus by aligning agendas to the public benefit. Body-worn video has an advantage as a security device in terms of providing the end user with a sense of protection. It’s a second pair of ‘eyes and ears’ should something go wrong.” Tony Porter QPM LLB, the Surveillance Camera Commissioner, added: “I’m absolutely delighted to support the new British Standard and acknowledge the excellent work which has been undertaken to deliver it in such short timescales. As the use of body-worn cameras proliferates, so they become more and more ingrained as an intrusive capability in the daily lives of citizens. The important and fundamental balance of preserving the rights of citizens while keeping our communities safe and secure is at the heart of the Home Secretary’s Surveillance Camera Code of Practice which, of course, I regulate. The principles within that Code are resident at the very heart of the new British Standard and I commend its introduction.” With body-worn video cameras now widely adopted by councils and police services across the UK, and in direct response to concerns over data security and privacy, a new British Standard (BS 8593:2017 Code of Practice for the Deployment and Use of Body-Worn Video) has been developed in conjunction with security and privacy groups including the Home Office, the Metropolitan Police Service and Big Brother Watch*. Brian Sims reports Legitimate deployment Examples of the legitimate deployment of bodyworn video cameras can include: • Safeguarding employee safety and security where a given end user of body-worn video may be at risk of physical or verbal attack or is otherwise working in a hazardous environment • As a deterrent if the device wearer is involved in policing or controlling an environment which people could try to disrupt • Evidence capture if the body-worn video user is involved in a role where they might witness or investigate criminal activity, and where capturing visual or audio evidence could assist with future legal proceedings • Promoting transparency where device wearers (such as bailiffs or parking wardens, for example) regularly encounter complaints • Capturing data to use in process improvement or training (identifying learning opportunities) Device recommendations such as functionality, weight, image quality and Tony Porter QPM LLB: Surveillance Camera Commissioner 9 www.risk-uk.com
