The true cost of a bank robbery:
The average bank robber escapes with relatively small amounts of cash but is the cash representative of the actual loss? Sick leave, workman's compensation claims, loss of goodwill and branch downtime impact financial institutions in ways that far exceed the loss of funds.

Employees who remain emotionally sound during a robbery:
Will likely reduce the amount of time a robber is in the branch. Less time in the branch means fewer chances for injuries and smaller dollar losses. In addition, these same employees are less likely to incur sick leave and related workman's comp expenses due to post robbery trauma.
Are less likely to freeze, faint, ignore or attack the robber, reactions that can cause a frustrated robber to accidentally or intentionally discharge his weapon.
Are more likely to use available countermeasures such as tracking devices, dye packs and bait money which often leads to the robbers arrest.
NOTE PASSER PREVENTION
"S.A.F.E C.A.L.M"
The most effective program available to deter would be note passers. Patterned after the FBI's SAFECATCH program, the S.A.F.E.C.A.L.M program is easy to implement and utilizes techniques that support your existing commitment to providing excellent customer service. Sign up for one of our upcoming Bank Robbery Survival Programs.
