Is it true that as a loss prevention worker, you can arrest someone for concealing items even if they haven't exited the store?

  1. True

  2. False

  3. Depends on the situation

  4. Only with a supervisor's permission

The correct answer is: False

As a loss prevention worker, you do have the authority to apprehend shoplifters, but only if they have left the store. Concealing items without exiting the store does not constitute as shoplifting, and therefore you cannot make an arrest in this situation. Option C and D are both partially incorrect, as the situation does not determine whether an arrest can be made, and a supervisor's permission is not needed to make an arrest if the person has left the store.
