The CVS Shoplifting Policy
CVS stores utilize several security measures, including asset protection staff, video monitoring, anti-theft tags, and secured shelving, to prevent and detect shoplifting, corporate customer service representatives and CVS store associates said. Due to security concerns, CVS’ corporate customer service representatives and store associates were unable to provide much information about CVS’ loss prevention measures. For more insight into the role of its asset protection staff, we contacted CVS’ recruiting department. Asset Protection Staff
The role of an asset protection employee at CVS varies somewhat by location and level. Leaders and managers will create and implement anti-theft strategies for their assigned stores. While these employees are not on-site at CVS stores at all times, they do conduct site visits, investigate incidents, and work with local law enforcement when necessary. Coordinators are the daily field operators for loss prevention at CVS. These employees wear a CVS uniform and monitor for potential theft incidents.
