This year’s Retail Crime Survey was completed by 60 retailers, employing 1,154,019 staff and representing 49 per cent of total retail turnover.
The survey has identified an increase in total cost of retail crime of 10 per cent in 2008-09 (losses through theft and damage plus the cost of crime prevention measures). Robberies almost doubled in incidence and accounted for 4 per cent of all retail crime, by value.
