I had a friend that was in a car accident. It was a minor fender bender, but she was still pretty shaken up over it. The responding police officer told her that there were two kinds of drivers out there. There were the ones who had been in an accident, and there were the ones that will be in an accident. Employee theft is no different.

There are two types of businesses – ones that have had an employee steal from them, and the ones that will have an employee steal from them. If you have been in the first category, you know how devastating that can be. If you are in the second category, well, maybe you should consider pumping up your knowledge about employee theft by getting some loss prevention training or taking a loss prevention seminar.

In the loss prevention workshops, you will learn about preventative measures, impressions of control, and common methods of theft. No two cases are identical, but there are common ways that employees steal, and common practices that you can put into place to prevent employee theft.

A good loss prevention seminar will teach you the basics of case building and options for the resolution of the case. They may also be able to provide insight into your specific state’s criteria for a legal or civil case to be made.

I have hosted a great deal of loss prevention training for my company. For me, it can be a pretty routine class. I give the same basic talks over the same basic subjects like shoplifting and employee theft. I know where to pause, where to take a break and where to add in the same joke that usually gets the same polite laugh.

Even though we cover the same materials daily in our jobs, I was moved and inspired by his parts of the presentation. I was able to find a new perspective and new insights into our presentation material.

He had different examples of employee theft cases. These cases were ones that were new to us. It gave a new way to analyze our reports and to be aware of what some of our dishonest employees might be doing and how they could get away with it. If we hadn’t listened, we might have missed out on this valuable information.

We talked after the loss prevention workshop was over. He had found a similar inspiration in my presentations. It seems that even though we were considered experts in our field, we were not above learning something different. Had it not been for the joint effort we would not have ever realized that we could also benefit from basic loss prevention seminars.

Loss Prevention Seminars are a great way to gain perspective and to find someone who can remain objective when it comes to shoplifting and employee theft in your store.

It’s hard to keep an objective eye when you have one of your employees disrespecting you by lying and stealing from you. Let’s face it. As a small business owner, employee theft is just as much about your losses as it is the losses your business incurs.

Shoplifting is the same. It is easy to lose your objectivity when you and your business are being victimized by theft. That is why it can be critically important to find someone who has been able to retain their objectivity in the face of employee theft and shoplifting.

By attending a loss prevention workshop you gain access to a moderator who is not only objective, but is also a seasoned expert in their field. You can take their experiences and trials and errors and learn from them. Hopefully you will be able to take these lessons and apply them to your personal situations.

Loss prevention training will open your eyes to details or methods of theft that you may have been blinded to. Knowing these details will help you more fully recover your losses and prevent them from happening in the future.

As a retail manager, I have spent ample hours stuck in meetings and loss prevention training. All too often the presenter would shift through paperwork looking for answers to topics they were not fluent in. The “errs” and “umms” would be so distracting that by the time they actually started talking our brains would have wandered off to what the lunch menu for the day would be.

It was always unfortunate because there was a lot of good information that could be garnered from those meetings, if the presenter knew what they were doing. If your trainer looses their audience, you loose out on the information given in addition to the hours of misplaced productivity. As a Loss Prevention manager one always thinks of new ways to steal; it is part of the job to effectively prevent employee theft and shoplifting.  This makes for interesting discussions with fellow Loss Prevention staff.

Adult learning is not so complicated of a process. We need to be stimulated, and energized, and entertained to a certain degree. Too often presenters drone on and on. They do not watch their audience for cues to take a break. They are more concerned with pushing through the material than to make sure there is comprehension from their audience.

This is not the way to run a meeting. Loss Prevention Seminars should be informative and educational. It is a chance for everyone to understand how to be eyes and ears in the workplace. When unskilled presenters make poor attempts at giving Loss Prevention Training, it is the audience that suffers in the end.

Knowing that I had conducted loss prevention seminars that cover extensive information in a short span of time, he asked me for some advice. He was trying to get through a very rigorous set of tests to get his state licensing completed. He had taken them once before, but had failed.

The advice he was looking for wasn’t on the information that I had specifically covered in my loss prevention workshop. Rather it was in how to manage and disseminate the massive amount of information he had to sort through in such a short span of time.

The advice I gave him was to find a way to categorize the information. If he could loop the ideas together into groups, then he could break the information down into smaller sections of information. For example, my loss prevention training fell into three main categories of shoplifting, employee theft and operational breakdowns.

From there, my trainees could spend time focusing on one category until they knew it forwards and backwards. They didn’t need to loop it all into one big mess of information. If I taught all of the information covered under all three topics, but told my trainees that I was hosting a class only on shoplifting, no one would have been able to retain and ultimately use that knowledge.

Here is a story that I tell in my Loss Prevention Workshops that grabs the attention of everyone in the room, even though it has nothing to do with shoplifting. In Loss Prevention Seminars, shoplifting is a sure attention getter, but there is more to retail theft than that.

Once upon a time, there was a charming silver haired granny that worked in a clothing store. She was kind and pleasant and loved her grandchildren very much. Not a day went by that you didn’t hear her talking about those little children with a glimmer in her eye and her heart swelling with pride.

She loved her job in the children’s department and would frequently pick up little items of clothing to give to them. Most of the items came from the clearance racks.

Several months later, I started to notice that there were major discounts on her employee purchases. These were not percentage off discounts for clearance items. These were discounts for brand new items.

I started snooping around, and one day as I was going through things; I stumbled across two brand new Halloween costumes out of place in a stockroom. The employee came to tell me what a shame it was that the zippers were broken on them and that she had set them aside to buy them later.

Coincidentally, these costumes just happened to be in her grandchildren’s sizes. They also happened to be the only two costumes with zipper issues we had all season. Did I mention store policy was 40% off for a broken zipper?

Well, my loss prevention training covered most cases of employee theft. However, my loss prevention training did not cover employee theft concerning intentionally damaging product to garner discounts by a 70 year old woman who simply loved two little children so much that she would do anything for them.

My mentor walked me through that one. Sad as it was, granny was let go for employee theft via discount abuse and vandalism.

If employee theft and shoplifting methodology were all that Loss Prevention Training was about, there would be no use for trainers. If you have ever taken Loss Prevention Seminars, you know differently.

I have a newfound love of cooking and baking. While it is a pastime I have always enjoyed, my family is not always better off for my new hobby. In fact, because of my hobby, we have a standing rule at the house that if I make anything inedible, we order out for pizza. No questions asked, and no ones feelings get hurt. There have definitely been several instances where the food was not anywhere close to the desired result.

Since I find most of the recipes online, it ends up being trial and error to figure most of them out. Written directions can often be misinterpreted. Without a basis to see the author’s meaning and techniques, directions can end up being inaccurate as a result.

The recipes that are more accurate the first time around are the concoctions that have a video attached. It is infinitely easier to be successful when you can see and have someone walk you step by step through a process, instead of trying to follow written directions with no one to assist you.

Reading a loss prevention manual, and going through a loss prevention workshop are two completely different ways of learning. A book can only take you so far. Having someone in front of you teaching you through a loss prevention workshop will greatly increase your chances of being successful.

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.

Loss Prevention Workshops are a great way to gain perspective and to find someone who can remain objective when it comes to employee theft and shoplifting in your store.

A loss prevention seminar conducted by someone with objectivity, will open your eyes to details or methods of theft that you may have been blinded to. Knowing these details will help you more fully recover your losses and prevent them from happening in the future.

By attending a loss prevention workshop you gain access to a moderator who is not only objective, but is also a seasoned expert in their field. You can take their experiences and trials and errors and learn from them. Hopefully you will be able to take these lessons and apply them to your personal situations.

Loss prevention training provides one-on-one contact and brings the information to the level you need. If you are aware of the basic modes of theft, this is a chance to get a more in depth look at motives and preventative measures. If this is your first time dipping into the world of employee theft and shoplifting, the workshop can be geared towards more basic and introductory knowledge.

The workshop is the opportunity you need to have someone help you resolve your theft concerns and situations. It gives you alternate methods that you might have previously turned a blind eye to.

The only meetings I ever looked forward to, were the ones I presented at. I think it was because not only did I have control over the pace and quality of the meeting, but I had an exciting topic to present about, shoplifting and employee theft.

My husband, on the other hand, hates meetings. I always chuckle to myself anytime he has to go to any sort of meeting, regardless of what it is. I have to agree with him, though. For the most part, meetings generally are no fun. It is a full day of being stuck in a lightless room, with monotonous presenters and ill prepared presentations.

Giving a loss prevention workshop was fun for me because I could make it fun. I was passionate about my chosen field of work, but I was also passionate about helping people learn. You really need both.

Loss Prevention Training really is nothing more than any other boring meeting if you don’t have someone who has passion. They can get the attendees riled up and interested in what is being said. If your employees are interested in the meeting, you have a better chance of them actually retaining parts of the presentation.

It doesn’t matter how many times you say the words shoplifting or employee theft. Not having a passionate speaker negates everything interesting about your presentation topic. If your employees don’t retain the information then it was just a waste of time for all involved. That is why they are at the Loss Prevention Seminar to begin with.
