Opis

The days are long gone when alarm systems and guard dogs were enough to deter retail theft. Facing security problems on many fronts, including external and internal theft, operational and paperwork errors, vendor error, and Organized Retail Crime (ORC), retail security practitioners must be well-versed on the cause and effect of each problem as they are often called on for answers to mitigate these issues and protect the profitability of their company. This book provides an understanding of the fast-paced world of retail loss prevention, the day-to-day challenges retailers face, and solutions for the threats facing this multifaceted business. It also explains how to successfully assemble a Loss Prevention department and program.
