A Hot Topic- Retail Theft Prevention

Anti shoplifting was always a hot topic for a fellow manager and I. We used to share stories and exchange thoughts on how to approach certain situations in the workplace. He firmly believed in managing to the small things. If you could manage the little things that went on, the big things would take care of themselves.

I always had a hard time believing him. I spent most of my time running around putting out fires- taking care of the big things, as it were. My retail theft prevention revolved around apprehending the shoplifters who were brazenly taking the large (expensive) items right out the door. I didn’t have “time” to deal with the small little things.

After a while, I began to get frustrated because I felt like I did stop shoplifting in the store, but the thefts kept coming. I knew I needed a new way to stop shoplifting on a more permanent basis.

I decided to try my friend’s advice and focus on the little things. Instead of watching the big items, my retail theft prevention sent a clear message that the small items were alarmed and tagged.
