In an effort to respond to the apparent failure of existing approaches to loss prevention, this chapter introduces a ‘process-orientated’ approach to tackling shrinkage. The approach consists of a prescriptive series of seven steps that form a stock loss reduction ‘road map’, together with associated techniques and tools for undertaking each step.126774 bytesapplication/pdfenReproduced with permission of Palgrave Macmillan.
