Employee theft amounts to roughly $36.6 billion retail dollars lost
annually, according to a 2008 National Retail Security Survey, and
accounts for approximately 42.7 % of all retail losses. Each year
organizations spend millions of dollars on theft
detection/prevention devices yet still incur losses at the hands of
their own employees; begging the question not of how theft occurs,
but why. Discussing the concept of the Theft Triangle (opportunity,
motivation, and insufficient deterrents), Retail Security and Loss
Prevention Solutions investigates motivational factors that
contribute to loss and describes philosophies that can change the
entire spectrum of employee dishonesty. It cites the revolutionary
approach adopted by the New York Subway System, demonstrating that
by changing the overall presentation of the business and contending
with the factors preceding the crime, the crime itself can be
avoided. As the title "Loss Prevention Professional" implies, the
intention is to stop the damage before it occurs. To this end,
chapters discuss behaviors that precede a loss event, theoretical
perspectives and research on employee deviance and motivation, and
methods to control employee dishonesty through deterrents as well
as ethical infrastructures. Detailing the intricacies of the Loss
Prevention Profession and the myriad skills involved such as
accounting, forensics, fraud detection, human behavior analysis,
and interview/interrogation skills, the authors give advice on how
to select the right individuals for the job and how to build a Loss
Prevention department. They employ real life case studies and
interviews and discuss the problems and solutions for the future of
loss prevention as a whole.
