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.

We discuss:
- Safeguarding employees across thousands of locations

- Why effective communication is about speed, accuracy, and knowledge
- Networking and sharing information with peers in the industry
