Retail Store Security

Shoplifters have become increasingly brazen. Instead of hiding merchandise in coats, shoplifters fill up a shopping cart and drive through the front doors. Shoplifting has become a normal shopping trip. People are upset that retail store security doesn't take shoplifters. Here's a friendly reminder, retail store security guards are not cops.

You want loss prevention personal to act like cops, security guards must be:

• trained like cops

• equipped like cops

• armed like cops

• regulated like cops

• paid like cops

• deputized by cops

PS If you apply for one of these security positions, you need to cover your rear. Make sure you get a copy of the store's official policy on the use of lethal force
