Errands to the Bank

The employee who goes to the bank must go directly to the bank to make the deposit and make no stops along the way. Deposits often contain large amounts of cash, and cash should not be carried anywhere else other than straight to the bank.

Bank deposits should not always be made at the same time and on the same day but the schedule should be varied and changed frequently to avoid creating a pattern that a criminal could predict.

Those making bank deposits should be on alert while traveling to and from the bank and be prepared to take protective action if circumstances appear that are suspicious or threatening, including aborting the bank run to return to the store.

To minimize our exposure and risk to the company as well as to those making the deposits, we will limit the amount of cash that is contained in any one deposit to $8,000 or less.
