When you spend a career in retail investigations, it is easy to sometimes forget how little you knew at the beginning. I remember being so convinced of an employee’s guilt that I was ready to bypass the judge and jury and send the employee directly to jail.
I know now that some of my decisions, while they may have been made out of good intentions, would have put my employers at risk. If I had had more training such loss prevention seminars, it would have enhanced my performance.
It took someone with years of experience and knowledge to show me the right way to conduct an investigation. I was also shown the ethical and legal way to deal with those outcomes.
I also know now that not every case of employee theft should be prosecuted.
It was only because I had the luxury of some really good mentors that helped me through the process, that I didn’t make some egregious errors.
I feel for those who don’t have a mentor to help them through the processes. I guess that is why it is important to take part in a loss prevention workshop that deals with employee theft.
You and your company can limit your risks associated with conducting a thorough employee theft investigation by getting some much needed loss prevention training. Loss Prevention Workshops can also help you understand the benefits, downsides, and potential liabilities associated with terminating and prosecuting an employee upon conclusion of an investigation. A loss prevention seminar can be worth its weight in gold.
