Checkpoint Security System Training

A strong deterrent to shoplifters can be achieved by installing a checkpoint security system. This includes the impulse, amateur and professional shoplifters. But employee involvement is critical. Many retailers believe that they have solved all their shoplifting problems once they have installed a Checkpoint Security System; however, that is one step in the process of solving shoplifting losses.

Employees typically understand how to operate Checkpoint security systems, but  a common problem is that employees are not trained on what to do when there is an alarm, or held accountable for alarms when they occur.

In many cases the Checkpoint system will alarm and an employee will just wave the customer (or shoplifter) through. Even worse they will say the system is not working properly. Because of a lack of training or confidence the employee just told everyone in range that they can shoplift to their hearts content…. and will just be waved on.

Checkpoint security systems installed by Loss Prevention Systems include on site training. We also provide our customers with training documents that allow you to keep the training on going.

How often should you train and provide follow up training to your employees on the use of your system? You decide. It depends on how much money you are willing to loose to shoplifters.
