A peek at what's inside...
“According to the US Chamber of Commerce, 75% of all employees will steal from their employer at least once. Even more concerning to our specific industry is that The National Restaurant Association estimates that employee theft accounts for about 75% of a restaurant’s inventory losses – between 5-7% of gross revenue per year. This means that a restaurant making $2 million per year may be losing $100,000 to $140,000 to their employees’ pockets.”
