Top 5 Fundamentals to controlling inventory shrink?
This is my list... any additions or changes?
1. Review of exception reports.
2. Walk the salefloor.
3. Look for unsecured merchandise (no tags, not locked, etc.)
4. Ask employees for receipts on all items (especially consumables).
5. Responding to cash over and short reports every day.
Disclaimer: I don't think the above are the complete answer to controlling shrink (I wish it were that easy!). I do think these 5 items go a long way to reduce the immediate causes of shrink.
