Protect Your Property

Are the goods you sell small in size, high in value, in great demand and easily sold on the streets? Do you keep large amounts of cash on premises? If so, you could be a target for a theft.

Here are a number of suggestions you should consider to reduce the chances of becoming a victim to theft from outsiders or employees:

• Secure all doors with deadbolt locks and all windows with tamperproof locks.
• Maintain well-lit, fenced premises.
• Maintain a central station alarm system, motion detector and/or security cameras.
• Display small, expensive items in locked glass display cases.
• Make frequent deposits of cash in a fire-resistant safe on premises.
• Stamp checks "For Deposit Only" immediately upon receipt.
• Make bank deposits frequently; staggering days and times to avoid suggesting a pattern.
• Screen prospective employees and thoroughly check their references.
• Perform announced and unannounced cash and inventory audits often.
• Have more than one person handle inventory and cash control.
