Frequently Asked Questions

What is loss prevention in retail?

Loss prevention in retail is the practice of reducing theft, fraud, and inventory loss. It uses trained staff, in-store procedures, and monitoring of high-risk areas to protect merchandise, employees, and customers.

A loss prevention officer observes customer and staff activity, watches high-risk zones, reviews camera feeds where available, and looks for suspicious behaviour. They follow store policies when responding to suspected theft and record incidents so management has clear information.

Loss prevention helps reduce shoplifting by placing trained officers in visible and strategic locations, focusing on behaviour rather than appearance, and responding quickly when something seems wrong. Consistent presence, clear store rules, and proper incident reporting all work together to lower theft.

Loss prevention services are especially helpful for grocery stores, clothing shops, electronics retailers, warehouse clubs, pharmacies, and any business that carries high-value, portable, or frequently stolen items.

Loss prevention officers must follow local laws and store policies when dealing with suspected shoplifters. In many cases, they may stop or hold a person only under specific conditions and must handle every situation in a safe, respectful, and lawful way. Proper training helps make sure each response meets legal and company standards.
