Even when you follow all security precautions at your business, you can become a victim of a jewellery crime. If that happens, sharing your information with other jewellers and law enforcement is the best way to fight crime and help keep you safe. Communication can be your most effective tool, as it may help prevent future crimes at other jewellery businesses and get criminals off the streets.
By reporting crime information and details about the perpetrators, you can help law enforcement in their efforts to identify and apprehend criminals.ӬIn addition, jewellers working closely with police helps educate the branches of law enforcement about specific crime challenges in the Canadian jewellery industry.
When law enforcement is aware a crime has been commited, they can connect the dots between organized criminal activities that might otherwise appear unrelated. Making these connections is critically important, as organized crime doesn’t usually go away on its own.
