Loss Prevention

Officers who cut shrinkage and stop theft before it hits your stock.

What's Included

Stock loss eats straight into your margin. Our loss prevention officers work the floor, either in plain clothes or in uniform depending on what suits your store, spotting suspicious behaviour early and stepping in before an item leaves the building.

What Our Officers Do

Discreet floor monitoring in plain clothes
A visible uniformed presence as a deterrent
Handling apprehensions and liaising with police
Training staff to spot and report shrinkage
Reviewing CCTV footage to catch repeat patterns

Why It's Worth It

Less stock walks out the door, which protects your margin
Organised retail theft becomes a lot harder to get away with
Genuine customers shop in a safer, calmer store
You get a clear report for insurance or legal follow-up

Service FAQs

Loss Prevention questions

Do you offer plain-clothes LP officers?

Yes, often alongside a uniformed presence, depending on what your store policy and Victorian licensing allow.

Will you train our floor staff?

Yes. We can brief your team on what to watch for, radio codes to use, and how to avoid unsafe interventions.

Are your officers licensed to work in Victoria?

Yes. JM Security Group only deploys officers who meet Victorian licensing, insurance and induction requirements.

How quickly can you start coverage?

For genuine emergencies, Melbourne surge cover is usually planned within hours. Standard bookings are confirmed after a short site or event briefing, often within 48 hours.

Do you provide shift reports?

Yes. You'll receive incident logs, patrol or post reports, and a named supervisor to contact about the deployment.
