STOCK LOSS PREVENTION
This is one of Stalwart’s Premium Services.
When we are approached by a client whose margins are down or stock has gone missing, we will go on site to survey the area for possible leaks which can be varied. We can use the services of one of our associates in the stock-taking business and fit CCTV covert or overt depending on the circumstances i.e. if the pilferage was being done by a member of the public or an otherwise good worker who you wanted to bring on line, thus saving the hassle of having to replace him/her, then overt (open) cameras should do the trick if however this is a person or persons who may be an employee often long serving and personal friend or someone who is fond of litegation the possibility of complication could set in, i.e. unfair dismissal or defamation of character.
Stalwart Security will effectively hold the clients hand trough this difficult time, we will go in after hours and fit hidden cameras and monitor the tapes until we have enough definitive evidence, we then step over the bounds into Labour Laws, when we bring in the offending party and suspend them for 48 hours with full pay, having asked the mandatory questions and followed the proper procedure to comply with current Labour Laws.
When the 48 hours are up we again speak to these individuals and then and only then show them some of our video evidence; we will get an admission of guilt we feel this approach is more benificial to our client as opposed to calling the Gardai. At this point we discuss Re-embursment for our Client, this has been £20,000 on two occasions and varying sums from there down depending on their circumstances.
The object of the exercise is of course to avoid any unfair dismissal or defamation of character, which our system does and of course the offending party is dismissed.
The re-embursment of funds is a bonus all be it a nice one.
At this point we go for a drink with our Client/new friend but this is not mandatory.
