Business's use CCTV to address a variety of security loss prevention issues.

Credit card fraud
Employee theft
Shop Lifting
Robbery / Assault
Work place accidents
Returned merchandise fraud
As an offsite visual staff management tool
Graffiti
Vandals... to name just a few.

Business owners / managers tend to think primarily of “shoplifting” when considering use of CCTV, however employee theft is both much more common and more costly.

Retail business stock shrinkage is usually 2% to 4% of retail sales on average, but can be much much higher where large amounts of cash etc are involved. Of course much depends on the type of business.

Of that 2% to 4% lost turnover - 45% to 50% is employee theft - 30% to 35% is shoplifted
Even small business's lose $1000s every year.

The skilled use of loss prevention activities can reduced this shrinkage to less than 1%.

The fault of poor quality, ineffective but cheap DIY type CCTV systems many small business's have installed, to save money believing a professionally designed installed CCTV to be cost prohibitive, lies mostly with CCTV industry who has failed to properly educate consumers.
