| Abstract: | This paper presents evidence on employee theft in the UK. It uses data on actual recorded crime, in a model where employees are rational cheaters whose theft decisions may also be influenced by individual characteristics. The results provide information on employee theft as a particular type of crime, on policy that may help to combat it, and on alternative views of the motivation for crime. |
