External Theft Prevention

This module is designed to help anyone working in a home improvement retail store (including store management , sales associates and cashiers) learn about the effects that shoplifting can have on a retail home improvement store. It also contains tips on how to spot it, how to deal with it properly when it happens and how to prevent it from happening in the first place.

 

Store Safety

Safety is good business! This module is designed for all store personnel to learn more about basic store safety practices and the role that everyone plays in developing and maintaining a safe store environment. After completing this module you know more about how you can help promote an ongoing culture of safety in your store.
