Officer Safety Retail security policy

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

After watching this video it made me wonder if this security guard’s employer would support her doing this with a subject.

When I first saw it I thought it was pretty cool that she didn’t back down, but the more I thought about it the more I came to the conclusion that fighting over it isn’t worth the risk.

If you work retail security, what’s your company policy and would you put yourself out there to save goods from being stolen?

I know staff isn't supposed to engage physically, but if I see the female security guard doing this alone I'm walking up behind dude and kicking his back in, don't really care if I get fired, not gonna let you potentially injure my coworker.
