COVERT CCTV INSTALLATIONS

After discussing with you the pros and cons of hidden or overt observation, Salgado Investigations engineers install the cameras in locations determined by our engineers. The cameras usually cover the staff operating area, the counter area, the till and a view of the customer. Once all the equipment has been installed, trained staff will monitor the video footage.

We supply and install:

TILL FRAUD

Retail crime in the UK is estimated at well above the £½ billion mark per year. 80% of retail fraud is at point of sale, i.e. till fraud.

Retail businesses lose an average of 1% to retail fraud each year. Research shows that 25% of employees are totally honest, 25% are totally dishonest, and the remaining 50% are swayed by opportunity.

Till fraud is totally predictable, and is a function of the degree of security employed. Awareness significantly reduces your risks. If you operate tills, all your staff must be vetted, monitored and spot checked at all times to ensure that risks are kept to a minimum.

Detection methods must be robust, resilient and adequate if they are to combat the scourge of rogue staff perpetrating till fraud. Once theft or fraud is detected, the culprits must be caught sooner rather than later, and sanctions imposed within the limits of the law.

REPORTS

When all the details have been recorded, we compile a report on the findings, and discuss with you the next steps to be taken.

When monitoring is complete and all the details have been recorded, we compile a report on the findings, and we show you the video evidence. Our report forms the basis of an appropriate plan of action.
