EAS Tagging
Electronic article surveillance is a technological method for preventing shoplifting from retail stores. Products are protected by a tag or label, which is either removed or de-activated at the till. An Electronic Barrier at the point of exit detects live tags on merchandise which hasn't been paid for. This generates an alarm which is reacted to by Retail or Loss Prevention staff. Many retailers have strong Vendor Buying Agreements with manufactures, to enable the security tag to be built into the product at source. This is known as "Source Tagging". Whilst it adds a tiny cost to the product, this is outweighed by the benefit in reduced theft.
EAS and tagging is only effective if maintained and actively managed by the retailer. If the system isn't working, or isn't reacted to, it will not deter theft. Many retailers are now using active EAS management systems to ensure compliance to managing EAS activations.
