Here's a couple of questions from back in August's Embezzlement piece:
When using volunteers or food service firms there is some concern over the screening of persons who have access to cash. Some of the food service firms employ disabled (mentally) persons as well as those on parole. What are some controls that can be implemented?
Houses of Worship routinely operate food services for the poor or economically disadvantaged as well as thrift stores and other types of activities that may or may not involve monetary remuneration for the service. For instance, in some cases persons on government assistance may be given the opportunity to select one or more pieces of clothing from a thrift store each month - a shopping trip for those who cannot afford it.
I think there are really two very broad questions: one concerning cash controls and another concerning liability from employing potentially dangerous persons (or allowing them to volunteer). These are distinct issues with different tools to manage them. We'll break these down into separate blog posts. First we'll discuss an overview of the problems and controls; then we'll look at cash controls followed by managing dangerous persons.
