Crime prevention from Cash Bases

There probably isn’t a business anywhere in the UK that hasn’t been a victim of crime at one time or another. Research shows that 45% of all businesses will have been affected by crime within the last 12 months alone and a recent survey shows there have been eight million thefts by customers in retail outlets during the past year.

Cash Security is a major concern for retailers. Violent encounters can be terrifying for staff and damaging for equipment. During busy periods its easy for staff to forget to transfer larger notes from the till into a drop box leaving high quantities of cash visible to potential thieves.

Many retailers are fighting back against these staggering statistics with the innovative solutions developed by Cash Bases which aims to minimise the risk to the cashier and reduce the amount of cash that the thief can steal.

The Secure Plus skimmer drawers automatically drop high value notes into a hidden security box under the counter when they are placed in a particular note compartment. The operator is able to skim the drawer with every transaction made and, properly managed, the till will never contain more than the float.

Retailers who have invested in this new form of cash management agree that the cash drawers have given staff and store managers extra reassurance when handling cash and they know their company is continuing to put their needs first by investing in the latest security measures.
