Bodycams for council recycling centre staff will be used following rise in attacks. The council said that the 12-week trial aims to deter “violence and aggression” against frontline staff.
The cameras will only be activated if staff has a reason to believe that they are in a situation that has the potential to become inflammatory.
Colin Stewart, the environment, enterprise and infrastructure convener, said: "I believe this technology will not only protect staff but also help drive down unfounded complaints against employees and enable the council to gather better evidence for swifter justice."
