Research on Employee Theft
As reported in a recent study by Hayes International, employee theft is a major problem in business today. In 2010, 69,373 employees were arrested for workplace theft. In those cases, over $44 MILLION was recovered. One in 33 employees was apprehended for theft from their employer in 2010. Dishonest employees steal 5.9 times MORE often than shoplifters!!!
Consider that these figures do not include:
- Stolen time by employees (time paid for no work)
- Stolen time of employers (time spent monitoring and responding to employee theft)
- Stolen reputation of the company name or brand name
- Stolen morale of other honest employees
If the AVERAGE shows that 1 in 33 employees is guilty of theft, how can YOU beat those odds?
The answer is criminal background checks and pre-employment drug screening.
