store detective
A store detective (sometimes called a SD) is a member of Loss Prevention whose main role is to prevent and detect theft (commonly known as shoplifting) and reduce shrink in retail outlets.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=https://nationalcareersservice.direct.gov.uk/advice/planning/jobprofiles/Pages/storedetective.aspx )〕 They do this by patrolling the store in plains clothes looking to identify members of the public who are stealing from the store. More common terms today with major retailers are Loss Prevention Agent, Detective or Investigator and Asset Protection Officer. Special Officer, once common, is now rarely used, as few jurisdictions still allow it.
== Overview ==
Store detectives may be self-employed on a contract basis but most are employees of the retailer, or of a security firm with an outsourcing arrangement with the retailer, or of an agency with a similar agreement.
The job involves patrolling stores in the role of an ordinary shopper, watching for shoplifters. The detective observes any shopper behaving suspiciously, and keeps a mental record of such observations. The objective of the Store Detective is to observe a complete crime taking place. They achieve this by observing a shoplifter approaching an item, appropriating the item (picking it up), concealing the item (not always) and leaving the store having not paid for said item. The key difference between a store detective and a security guard is that the former's role is covert. If they observe an individual shoplifting, they may detain them as they attempt to exit the store, or apprehend the suspect(s) during the theft. Laws vary greatly from jurisdiction to jurisdiction regarding what constitutes the crime of shoplifting and how a suspect may be detained/arrested. In Canada detectives may arrest the individual utilizing powers given to them by the Criminal Code.
It is standard practice that stores require their detectives to have stable work histories and no criminal record. Common backgrounds include the armed services, fire & rescue services, security and policing. In the UK, distance learning courses in store detection are offered by many organisations but the Store Detective must be in receipt of an SIA (security Industry Agency) license. Training in Security Studies is available from numerous training providers - at various levels.
