Retail crime is not a victimless crime
Shoppers and retail workers are being urged to speak up and report retail crime, in the next phase of a partnership between Crime Stoppers NSW and the Australian Retailers Association (ARA).
Crime Stoppers NSW CEO, Mr Peter Price AM, explains to Clinton that retail crime takes many forms from shoplifting to coordinated robbery by crime gangs, abuse, and assaults against retail workers.
“These crimes don’t only affect Australian retailers but the frontline workers and ultimately the community, that means families. We all have them or are part of one so be respectful,” he says.
