If there is reason to believe that someone has stolen, then many companies do not want the employee to cover it and carry on. They want to have the problem dealt with and prevented.

And it was, many times--even though mostly it was in the $5-$10 range (Video stores) Too many deductions and I would fire the offender. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No
