The use of cctv camera can be an additional way to do just that but I think that if you can monitor your employee yourself and observe their activity that can also be as an additional way to do that because sometime small scale business will never be able to afford the cctv camera some are expensive

This is very true. For small scale businesses, you must be always be vigilant and monitor staff since you might not be able to afford cameras. In this case, feedback from customers is important as well.

Using a real life experience as an example , there are some business that are huge and you couldn't make counts of the stock because the money you even make daily is huge and also have a lot of customers , some greedy individuals use that as an opportunities to steal from their employer if cares not taken .

I'm sure things like that are still going on in a lot of workplaces. I believe such greedy staff will be caught one day by the management of the organization while committing such acts.

Its very true to be sincere I think that small business can chose to monitor the rate and growth of their business themself they also need to employ other people to monitor the business for them.

Cctv camera may somehow be so expensive for the small scale business.

You can as well chose to use your wife as the source of observation of that business finance if it is a one man business

How can an employer prevent employee theft? Employee theft is more common than you would think, and it doesn’t have to be high value, but the value of the products adds up overtime and can effectively have a huge impact on wages and bonuses to other staff members, as well as price hikes being passed to customers. One of the biggest ways to prevent Employee Theft is to install CCTV HD Cameras at all angles of the business, and another common method is to perform random staff searches. Are there any other ways employers can prevent employee theft?

Other ways are making sure cash payment is automated e.g use of credits card,Items are coded etc.

You have made a good point. Maybe you could also try using family members or people who are close to you because it is likely that they are always going to be loyal and truthful about transactions.

Employee theft could be a big issue. The only way to prevent it is to block the access of employees to the valuable items and cash reserves of the company and restrict employees to certain areas.

While this might help later on, I believe the most proactive measure to take is to ensure the organization hires staff that are trustworthy and morally upright. This will help reduce such incidents to the barest minimum.

It is really hard to trust people. Having said that, I really do not think that a wise business owner would allow any employee to enter in an area where his belongings are kept.

The only way that an employer could limit employee theft is by not ensuring that the financial department of the company is totally entrusted in the hands of the employee. There should be a sort of control or consent from the owners of the company before monies are released.

Asides fixing of security measures to monitor employees, the first thing employers should do is ensure these workers are highly motivated to not think of stealing.
That being said, connecting employees via a local or wide area network can also help track their activities online and giving of customized access cards to sensitive areas in and out of the office would help as well.
