Loss Prevention is not a tool we recommend everyone in your organization use due to the sensitive information uncovered. Loss Prevention tool is designed for complex operations, such as casinos and hotels, with a Finance or Analyst position approach. If you are a small operation (less than a dozen restaurants of similar concept, just a few revenue centers per location) we recommend our article on Preventing Theft, Abuse, and Fraud. We also recommend training your floor managers on these daily and weekly habits to keep a tight operation.
A manager who spends time on the floor during service, applies/approves voids and promotions, and has personal connection with the employees often doesn't have the time to devote to investigation and is sympathetic toward the plight of your line-level staff, distracting them from instituting function.
While the end result of our Loss Prevention tool is sometimes uncovering fraud and theft, it really highlights vulnerabilities and shows your above-store team how to tighten SOPs across the organization and reduce opportunities for malfeasance.
