Have supervisors:
Keep employees alert by holding periodic review sessions on store shoplifting policies.
Discourage socializing on the sales floor. A group of employees in one spot usually means inadequate coverage somewhere else.
Schedule hours so that an adequate number of sales people are working at all times.
Watch for customers lingering in one area, loitering near stock rooms or other restricted areas, or wandering aimlessly through the store.
Watch for customers who consistently shop during the hours when few people are working in the store.
Watch for customers who visit the store frequently, but make only token purchases.
Be alert for disturbances that distract sales people and cashiers.
