Converting Shoplifter Apprehensions Into Loss Prevention Opportunities
The National Association for Shoplifting Prevention (NASP) is using consumer shoplifting as a gateway to better community relations, customer loyalty, and more honest employees. Since the NASP began studying the shoplifting problem in 1977, there is one trend that has remained constant - shoplifting rises to the level acceptable to the community. For the purpose of this article, the community includes the retailer who may become known for its warn-and-release or no apprehension policy. It includes the wider community when it becomes common knowledge that the police do not respond to low-level crimes like shoplifting; and the parents, courts, prosecutors, and community leaders whose attitude that shoplifting, compared to what a child or an adult citizen "might have done," is no big deal.
