1. avoid or prohibit over time.. I know one of my friend used this tactis to avoid stealling. He locked the office door at 6 oclock sharp, the employee go home at 5. He keeps telling his employee anyone who work long hours are not using their 9 hour efficiently, but he told me he just wanted to avoid stealling!!
2. give only specific petty cash to the accountant, if they need more money they have to use their money first and the office will reimburse it..
3. Dont use new computer for company assets, use second hand products. Have Insurance if possible..
4. Tracing the thiefs : Ask your neighbours if they noticed any suspicious acts that day, ask if they know the suspicious person and if they know where you can find them, dont go by yourselves, ask your Indonesian staffs to do this for you, your most trusted employees and who tend to "lick your a___" most of the time..
5. Check your Security cameras, Attendance record and Personnel Log book.
Interogate the employees who's working on that day and the day before!! Ask them to make a letter of statement ,with 6000 meterai on it, that they didnt steal, didnt have any attempt or didnt cooperate with the thiefs.. make sure you mentioned about "if you caught one of them coorperate with the thiefs they will go to jail"
To avoid employing a wrong person is to do a cross check. When you want to employ someone make sure you do your homework, check the school diploma/certificate and most of important the employee references, this one always helped..
PS:if you called to the previous employer and they mentioned that He/She is Fine enough as an employee..please dont hire this person!!!
Most of the employer here never gave FINE as an answer... it has to be GOOD or SATIFYING,, FINE means bad! Most Indonesians here would never "openly expressed" a bad attitude to another employer..they just said FINE..:icon_evil:
I hope this information helps!
Good Luck and Success..
