In today’s dynamic business landscape, organizations are facing an unprecedented challenge: high employee turnover. It’s an inevitable part of the business ecosystem, impacting industries across the board.

Fast-Frictionless Self-Checkout Shopping Increases Retail Shrink

Frank Costa, President Nexgen Protection Services – 

As predicted retail shrink is on the rise as frictionless commerce creates  challenges for retail and loss prevention. Consumers prefer and will pay more for simple, fast, and efficient shopping experiences.

Over 50 percent of consumers will switch to a merchant with less friction in the shopping experience. Retailers with self-checkout lanes and apps experience a loss rate of more than double the industry average.

Mass Shootings: Schools Now Target-Harden Campuses

Frank Costa, President Nexgen Protection Services – 

Target-hardening at schools has been a hot topic in the United States, especially as mass shootings continue and school administrators take on a more active role in security. 

Schools started adding bulletproof windows and desks, stronger locks on doors, alarm systems that directly communicate with law enforcement, and artificial intelligence (AI) enabled camera systems, among other target hardening techniques. They have conducted drills and established better emergency response plans.
