Retail Theft and Shoplifting Database

The retail theft database contains nearly 45,000 applicants with records of theft…most of whom cannot be found in standard public records because they were never prosecuted. This information is critical to prevent hiring thieves who would otherwise go undetected.

The National Theft Database records shoplifting and employee theft incidents from nearly 1,000 member companies. Checking your applicants against the National Theft Database will help protect you from hiring known thieves. The National Theft Database operates on an efficient and streamlined system. If a record indicates that an applicant has admitted to stealing from a member company, the case information is re-verified before being disseminated.

Most employee theft incidents are never prosecuted, meaning that the information in the National Theft Database is not available anywhere else. It contains exclusive information shared only between members. It is constantly updated with new incidents. Information in the National Theft Database is fully compliant with the FCRA.
