Just about any type of business comes with risks and liabilities, and retailers are no exception. In retail, such risks can come in the form of safety issues (e.g., in-store hazards that can cause slips and falls), theft and loss (e.g., shoplifting), or operational challenges (e.g., employee errors leading to inventory discrepancies). While being 100% risk-free isn’t possible, you can take measures to reduce risks and liabilities.
