Have your experiences given you new insights into security measures or fraud prevention? We’d like to talk to you! We are currently actively seeking input for the 2019 edition of the PERG Digest of Fraud and Theft Prevention Measures. Theft is a constantly evolving topic, and PERG is continually gaining additional data and insights, so PERG has committed to updating the Digest on a two-year cycle. Please contact the PERG Manager if you have a topic, tip, or precaution to contribute to next year’s edition!
The PERG Digest leverages our industry’s collective knowledge to provide our members with a unique resource. The Digest is informed by real-world, industry-specific incidents collected by RENTAL GUARD from hundreds of thefts between 2014 and the present. It also includes input from rental houses, law enforcement, insurance underwriters, brokers, and security experts. The document describes procedures and security measures that have been found effective. It is intended to help rental houses consider potential security weaknesses, train staff, and respond in the event equipment is stolen. Your contributions help harden our industry against these continual losses, making the Digest a truly invaluable industry resource.
