Robbery Prevention Tips for Business Owners/Employees

Every business owner, manager and employee plays a part in making businesses safe. Here are some things you can do to help prevent robbery:

* Have at least two employees open and close the business.

* Do not release personal information to strangers.

* Keep purses and personal valuables locked in desks or lockers.

* Install a robbery alarm.

* Place a surveillance camera behind the cash register facing the front counter. Replace videotapes regularly.

* Vary times and routes of travel for bank deposits.

* Don’t use marked “moneybags” that make it obvious to would-be robbers you are carrying money for deposit.

* Keep a low balance in the cash register.

* Place excess money in a safe or deposit it as soon as possible.

* Cooperate with the robber for your own safety and the safety of others. Comply with a robber’s demands. Remain calm and think clearly. Make mental notes of the robber’s physical description and other observations important to law enforcement officers.
