Employee Theft
Employee theft is one of the most damaging yet often overlooked threats facing businesses today. Whether it’s cash skimming, inventory shrinkage, intellectual property theft, or deliberate sabotage, internal theft can devastate your bottom line and erode the trust that forms the foundation of your workplace culture. When you suspect an employee is stealing from your business, you need more than just suspicion—you need proof, and you need it handled professionally.
The Hidden Cost of Employee Theft
The statistics are sobering. According to industry research, employee theft costs U.S. businesses billions of dollars annually, with the average case resulting in losses of over $1,300 per incident. But the real damage goes beyond immediate financial loss. Employee theft can:
- Damage workplace morale and trust
- Create legal liabilities if handled improperly
- Lead to increased insurance premiums
- Result in loss of client confidence
- Cause operational disruptions
When theft is suspected, swift and professional action isn’t just recommended—it’s essential for protecting your business’s future.
