PREVENT EMPLOYEE THEFT

HOW TO STOP EMPLOYEE THEFT

Theft of equipment may appear to be a trivial issue that can be overlooked, but it costs businesses far more than it looks. People who decide to steal at work frequently continue to do so for years until their employer notices. As a result, if you want to avoid employee theft, you must first understand why they steal and what they take the most.

Firstly, Why Are People Stealing Equipment?

The rationale behind the theft of office supplies is crucial to comprehend. You can focus on prevention from that perspective once you understand the logic.

It may surprise you to learn that 75% of workers admit to stealing at least once from their employer, therefore it’s critical to understand their motivations.

The majority of office supply thefts have nothing to do with kleptomania. While some employees steal for monetary gain, the most prevalent motivation for office supply theft is unhappiness.

What Are Employees Stealing From Work?

Pens and pencils are the most regularly stolen things from work, according to the findings, with 38 percent of Britons confessing to stealing writing equipment.

Note pads (which 22% of employees have taken from the office) and printer paper are also popular among light-fingered employees (18 percent ).
