Did you know that retail crime, such as shoplifting, robbery and vandalism, costs Australian businesses up to $9 billion each year?

Retailers face risks including armed robbery, active armed offender incidents, and assault. Do you know what to do if an active armed offender came into your business with the sole intention of hurting people? Like any emergency, you should have a well-practiced plan for what to do.

This training takes place on our eLearn platform. Members will need to create a login for this platform when using for the first time.
