How Sally Beauty Minimizes Loss & Protects Lone Workers
Loss prevention in the retail industry is more complicated than ever. LP professionals must constantly peek around the corner to identify potential disruptions to their business and mitigate the associated risks. That means implementing an asset protection plan that prioritizes employee safety before anything.
This is the case at Sally Beauty, and it isn’t just lip service.
Jim Mires, Vice President of Loss Prevention and Safety, shares the steps his team takes to protect an increasing number of lone workers, partner with industry peers to solve problems, and achieve alignment on the company’s safety culture from the top down.
We discuss:
- Safeguarding employees across thousands of locations
- Implementing security devices and new policies to protect lone workers
- Why effective communication is about speed, accuracy, and knowledge
- Networking and sharing information with peers in the industry
The Employee Safety Podcast is hosted by Peter Steinfeld, SVP of Safety Solutions at AlertMedia.
