    When you own a company, you realize how valuable your employees are to you and your business overall. That's why you need to do whatever you can do to keep them safe. here are some ways you can do just that.

    Eyes Inside the Rise of Organized Retail Crime

    Estimates suggest that 67% of burglaries can be prevented by installing video surveillance business security systems. This is, or rather was good news. Now, however, a new form of theft is occurring with increasing frequency. Organized Retail Crime (ORC) costs the retail industry $30 billion per year, and a shocking 97% of retail stores have admitted to being a victim of ORC.  The Lifting Strategy Simple shoplifting is generally a cut and dried case. A store catches the thief in action, they are given a slap on the wrist, and everyone moves on with their lives. ORC is a different ballgame. Lifters are not independent agents, but rather more like contracted employees of a grander scheme.  The way it works is a group of lifters flood one retail location for a certain amount of time. When it gets too hot (too much attention) they leave, letting the store owner believe they solved the problem. If any...
