I am a new employee at a store – Full Time Assistant Manager.
Now, going in, the Store Manager relayed how it is hard to keep a full staff in the store. I thought nothing of it until a theft incident.
An individual walked out with a load of merchandise … just walked out with them.
The Store Manager informed me, as the full time assistant manager, that the cameras do not work and that the sensors at the front door do not work either. I am like “haha that explains why there is such a high turnover here” – Of course I did not say that.
Now the Store Manager did not say anything about relaying this to the district manager on the need for real cameras and functional sensors at the front entrance of the store. So I am at a loss.. I mean, the store's entrance is unsecure.
Should I speak to the district manager about this matter?
What should I do? How should I ask for security?
