 Retail Loss Prevention Officers | How We Can Help

Security Concepts Services will help develop business, store-specific or retail chain documents and materials to help improve your store or retail chain losses, while also working with your store managers and staff to enhance their loss prevention techniques and response.

We understand no store or business owner wants to experience stock theft in their business, which is why Security Concepts Services would not only supply you retail loss prevention officers, covert retail officers, or overt retail officers. We will help train your staff on best practices to prevent stock losses, tackle theft and respond appropriately to shoplifters.

We are experts in the field of Retail Loss Prevention and Retail Security Services or Retail Security Guard provision. We have authored the first of its kind Australian Retail Security book called Security Adventure Service, which can be used to train your retail managers and retail employees to improve their retail awareness and keep your shrinkage as low as possible.

Employees Theft

We understand that some of the significant losses retailers or business owners incur are done by the in-house staff that the retailer or business owner employs, and entrusts their business to. At Security Concepts Service, we can develop a staff accountability technique that will reduce and possibly eliminate staff merchandise theft incidences from happening at your retail store or business.

Employees steal for so many different reasons; some are out of greed, or out to revenge, some steal just to abuse their authority, the reasons are endless why employees steal. That’s why our approach at Security Concepts Services is not only to look, outwardly-from external shoplifters, but we will design our system also to prevent merchandise theft inwardly from employees. Please check the following link below for a news report about the employees’ shoplifting trend.

Please check this article from the New York Times called the Phenome for more about staff theft.

Right Loss Prevention Officers | Undercover

We will not operate uninformed retail loss prevention techniques for all stores or businesses, as all stores are not the same. This is true in regard to the geographic location and history of the store location which will determine the kind of approach that will be designed for each specific retail store or retail chain. We will assign only the best and licensed loss prevention officers for your retail store. Our approach will be in consultation with the retail store or business owner.

We will consult with the retailer or business owner to see the best approach to implement for their store and business, and the best theft-loss response strategy that best fits their business profile and interest.

Covert or Overt

After a careful risk assessment and study of your retail store or business, we will recommend whether the retail loss prevention officers will be covert (secret) or overt (open), so you can decide from our recommendation what best suits your business interest.

CCTV

We are happy to assist the retail employee to operate the in-store CCTV, when there is a need for it, whether by review footage, burning footage, and releasing footage for Police or Management use.

Special Duties

Our specialized retail loss prevention officers can assist your retail manager or employees with other store duties where there is low foot traffic in your store, whilst acting covertly and watching suspicious customers.

So, you are not just paying for retail loss prevention officers, but you are using one stone to get two results by having a retail loss prevention officer assisting your retail employees when you are short of staff.
