Stealing

Better to catch her red handed, press charges, discredit her, and make her fess up to how much she pilfered, and have her make restitution.

I wouldn't tip my hand, she'll just figure out a work around or will storm off in a huff and slander you for implying she had anything to do with it. (That's what she told me in her email at any rate.)

Buy the camera and let everyone know you are installing it. Any questions?... say your till balance has not been balancing correctly and your business insurance recommended (insisted?) on a camera installation in case customers were accessing the till when everyone was busy.

This points no fingers at any employees but will certainly keep them honest after the installation. Perhaps also check the appointment books, or implement a system to check and justify, to be sure the clients' money is going into the till.

*I worked for a grocery store before I married who had a closed-circuit camera 'filming' the cashier section of the store. It was fake. It was a camera housing with a small light (to indicate recording) that was plugged in to appear "on". Deterrent for the customers, since the employees knew about it. You don't have to let your employees know it is fake...

Would you like me to strip search all the employees at the end of each day?
