Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ... Surveys of businesses have revealed that while crimes such as burglary and robbery tend to be reported to police, other crimes such as employee theft, employee fraud and shoplifting are likely to go unreported. Understanding why some crimes are reported and others are not is essential to encouraging business proprietors to report crime which, in turn, is essential for obtaining an accurate picture of crime and for developing effective crime prevention and management strategies. Drawing on data from the Small Business Crime Survey, this paper reveals that reporting behaviour of small retail businesses varied as a function of the type of crime and whether the crime was attempted or completed ... Further research to unravel the complex nature of reporting behaviour and to encourage greater reporting is recommended.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A report recently released from the Australian Institute of Criminology shows that many crimes which are committed against small retail businesses go unreported to police. Results from a survey completed by 3,834 business proprietors revealed that reporting practices differed markedly, burglaries and robberies were reported to police, very few incidents of shoplifting, employee theft and cheque/credit card fraud were reported. These results strongly indicate that patterns of crime reflected in police data do not accurately reflect patterns of crime which occur against businesses. In particular, burglary and robbery will be heavily over-represented in police data compared with theft and fraud.

Download or read book Costs of Crime High for Small Retail Businesses written by Australian Institute of Criminology and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page 1 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Australian Institute of Criminology has released data regarding the financial and psychological costs of crime for small retail businesses. The report states that those sectors with the greatest estimated losses were service stations (where the average loss to victims approximated $6,900 per year) and liquor stores (within which the average loss across all businesses in the sector was $4,000 per year). These sectors suffer the most because of the higher number of incidents they experience in each year, and because they are frequently victims of the more expensive crimes (burglary, robbery and shoplifting). The report also estimates that the total loss (direct and indirect) of crimes against the six retail sectors in 1998-99 amounted to approximately $170 million. The crimes which accounted for the majority of this total were burglary (35%), shoplifting (20%) and employee theft (18%).

Download or read book Crime Against Businesses in Two Ethnically Diverse Communities written by Natalie Taylor and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 6 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper reports on a face-to-face survey conducted with 337 small businesses in two ethnically-concentrated communities. Interviews were conducted in Vietnamese, Mandarin, Cantonese and English. Controlling for other factors, Chinese businesses were at greater risk of shoplifting and Vietnamese businesses were at greater risk of burglary and vandalism compared with English speaking businesses, while English speaking businesses were at greater risk of robbery and/or verbal abuse and/or physical assault. Cheque and credit card fraud was also more prevalent against English speaking businesses. Only one in five recent incidents of crime was reported to police with large reporting variations depending on the type of crime. Although low proficiency in English was not associated with actual victimisation, it was associated with a lower likelihood of reporting shoplifting and burglary. Fear of reprisal also reduced the likelihood of reporting crimes where the offender could potentially identify the victim. There are some important findings in this paper that should resonate with those implementing local crime prevention strategies in ethnically diverse communities.
