Which documents must be completed for every apprehension?

The completion of the Incident Reporting System and the ORC log is essential for every apprehension because these documents serve specific and crucial roles in the asset protection process. The Incident Reporting System records the details of the incident, including the circumstances surrounding the apprehension, any interactions with the apprehended individual, and any evidence or observations that support the case. This documentation is vital for maintaining a comprehensive record that can be referred to later, whether for legal purposes, internal reviews, or training.

The ORC (Organized Retail Crime) log specifically tracks incidents of organized retail theft, allowing the store to monitor trends, patterns, and the frequency of such thefts. This information can be pivotal in strategizing prevention methods and understanding the broader context of loss prevention efforts.

Together, these documents ensure that the apprehension is documented accurately and thoroughly, providing necessary evidence that supports the company's legal and operational protocols. Their completion is critical in maintaining not only compliance with internal policies but also legal standards in handling such incidents.
