Tips

It’s your business and you want to do all that you can to protect it, your customers and employees. The reality is that no business is immune to the threat of retail theft.

 

There is however, much you can do to reduce the threat of retail theft. First, evaluate your potential risks so you know where you might be vulnerable. With a little security planning and practical, cost-effective strategies you could prevent considerable losses.

Here are Practical Theft Prevention Tips

To help you avoid the unpleasant experience of burglary, we’ve created a list of practical theft prevention tips:

• Light all exterior points of entry with permanent fixtures that are difficult to reach or tamper with.
• Light the interior of your business enough that someone outside the building could see someone inside.
• Install a fence or hedge – it’s your first line of defense.
• You should be able to see through the fence.
• Hedges should be wide, rather than high, and of a prickly, thorny variety.
• Install window locks designed and positioned so they cannot be reached and unlocked after breaking the glass.
• Install safety glass (glazing). It is highly effective at deterring break-ins.
• Install motion detectors to sense movement inside the building.
• Install entry protecting alarms to detect the breaking of windows and the opening of doors.
• Install point protectors (such as pressure-switch mats) to detect when someone enters a restricted area, such as by a cash register.
• Install a deadbolt lock/latch in each exterior door.
• Lock overhead and receiving doors with high-quality padlocks.

Tip for Managers:

• Insure that all employees receive a written statement of key policies and procedures, and that they acknowledge receipt by their signature.
• Make it easy for employees to come forward to report their suspicions or concerns.
• Tell employees what to report and when to report it.
• Tell employees exactly how the information they provide will be used.
• Reassure employees that they are doing the right thing.
• Make yourself accessible to employees.
• Don't criticize employees who may be over-cautious.
• Respond immediately when you receive an employee call for assistance.
