      It’s probably not just catching customers as they pass by shoplifting stuff… it’s likely so the employees themselves will have a harder time lifting stuff.

          totally not because employees with knowledge of the store layout, receiving and stocking schedules, policies and procedures, employees and their schedules… would totally never in a million years think about ‘supplementing’ their shitty pay.

        I’m also worried what someone will do when they realize they’ve been caught doing something. Some might turn on the person with the camera. At a certain point, you’re putting your employees into physical risk

      I 100% do not support people shoplifting but they are not the only ones guilty of theft.

      So why do you not support them? The corpo execs don’t need a billion dollars but people do need to eat.

    ‘We don’t want any suggestion we are turning employees into security cameras’

    Except that’s exactly what you are doing.

    How can they say that with a straight face.
