Cash in Transit and Retail Crime Risk Management

Losses in retail and cash handling are rarely random. Route planning, cash centre design, staff vetting and the discipline of varying collection times all shape how attractive a target looks. Delegates work through risk profiling, armed response coordination and post incident support for staff who were present.
