What is a Loss Prevention Officer?

• A Loss Prevention Officer (LPO) is a licensed
  security guard who is generally undercover in
  plain clothes, or as we like to call a "Covert
  Operator". Loss Prevention Officers can be in a
  full security uniform and fill the role of a
  general security guard as well, however the most
  effective way to identify, prevent control
  people from stealing from your business is to
  implement a "Covert Operator" with an exclusive
  role as a Loss Prevention Officer.

• Loss prevention officers can conduct
  surveillance operations undercover, monitor CCTV
  and manage investigations with police to press
  charges against the criminals.
• Theft Problems
• All businesses experience the threat of people
  stealing from their company. Without the correct
  loss prevention processes in place, its hard to
  get accurate statistics on the loss of stock or
  money.

• Generally stock gets written off as damaged
  goods, money variances get balanced with
  incorrect data. If you cant work out how and why
  the stock or money is going missing then you cant
  fix the problem.
• It could be customers stealing products off the
  shelf, staff stealing from the company or
  organised crime by internal staff or outsiders.

• When you have an internal staff member stealing
  from you, it rings alarm bells with what else
  they are doing. Are they leaking information to
  your competitors? Is there organised crime and
  outsiders involved with your staff?
• When people steal from your business it has
  serious effect on your profit margins at the end
  of the year and causes a list of other
  operational issues that never get fixed.

Theft Solutions

• Loss Prevention Officers roles are to identify
  potential security risks for businesses where
  they are most vulnerable to theft from customers
  or their own staff. It is then the Loss
  Prevention Officers job to find solutions to
  prevent theft and create awareness to your staff
  so they can work as a team.

• Loss prevention officers can create a compliance
  structure implementing strategies in the
  policies procedures to manage the shrinkage.
  Once our loss prevention officers have detected a
  crime they will then attempt to retain the items
  and conduct an investigation involving the
  police. Our reporting system will allow us to
  analyse information and provide resolutions to
  improve the processes which result in less
  shrinkage and overall higher profit margins.
