Retail Security Services Melbourne
Organised crime and repeat offences are serious problems for the Australian retail industry.
Retail crime disrupts business operations, harms staff, impacts customers and erodes profitability, while also impacting employment and living expenses.
Did you know that retail crime, such as shoplifting, robbery and vandalism, costs Australian businesses up to $9 billion each year?
Every incident erodes profitability for businesses, increases the cost of goods to consumers, endangers frontline staff while also wasting their time, and ultimately reduces the appeal of our retail precincts to customers.
Our main objective is to protect the safety and well being of both customers and employees in a retail establishment and to prevent financial damage caused by shoplifting, robbery, or similar dangers.
DUTIES OF A RETAIL SECURITY GUARD
Duties of a retail security guard may include:
- Removing potentially harmful persons from the retail store or area
- Using video surveillance equipment
- Detain offenders until law enforcements arrive
- Customer assistance or customer service to shoppers.
- Act as a highly visible deterrent to would-be shoplifters
A retail environment could be a single store or an entire shopping mall. And depending on the client needs, our retail security guards may work on a team with other security professionals.
Apart from the safety of your staff and customers, our security guard is also responsible for protecting the financial interests of your business. These might include cash registers, vaults, or other valuable items in the store.
Common Shoplifting Techniques to watch out for:

- Unwrapping items
- Causing a disruption
- Inside jobs
- Phony returns
To help Melbourne retailers reduce the risk, SecurT offers a full range of retail security services. Our security officers are well trained in observation, security technology and, most importantly, customer service.
