Retail chains like TJX, the parent company of TJ Maxx and Marshalls, are equipping some store employees with body cameras to deter shoplifting and improve safety. This is part of a growing trend in the retail industry, as stores respond to an increase in organized retail theft and violence against workers. However, some criminologists and worker advocates argue that body cameras are unlikely to be an effective deterrent and that retailers should focus on improving training, staffing, and other safety measures instead. There are also concerns that the body camera footage could be misused, such as to monitor and discourage union organizing. Overall, the implementation of body cameras in retail is a complex issue with pros and cons that retailers will need to carefully consider.

I noticed in my local supermarket in the UK they started wearing cameras too it’s really weird. I’m really not sure what their goal is - it will never help shoplifting as much as static cameras, and seems a lot of effort to safeguard against abusive customers.
I just want to say that I appreciate how your comment has made me understand that writing run-on sentences without punctuation isn’t a strictly American English language thing.
This sounds mean-spirited of me, but I actually mean it. Everybody always makes fun of the Americans for it. And I’m not saying I’m perfect, either. Poor grammar can bring us all together.
Can’t have people who can’t afford to eat actually eat? This is sad, and it doesn’t bode well, for global society.
