Is there anyway an employer can be compensated for a lost by theft?

Insurance or sue the theif.

If you paid for the item then it is yours.  You can actually write it off of your income taxes as an "Unreimbursed Employment Expense."  Although, your employer and his lawyer must have a good reason to think it is not yours.  Otherwise, they wouldn't even bother with court.

I would just send out a company wide memo that says: All employees are  to put their names on their lunches...and any lunches(or leftovers) will be tossed on Fridays.  Somebody may have accidentally taken the lunch...maybe it looked similar to theirs...OR maybe you have an employee who isn't well off financially and really needed the food. There is no sense accusing people of stealing. Sending a polite memo to all is usually enough to let people know something happened...and that it is being taken care of. The offending party also knows..and probably will feel guilty and wont do it again!

Your motor home policy will pay, which means it will be subject to your deductible.  \n\nIf the thief is ever caught, you can try to go after him in civil court, usually they don't have any money anyway. \n\nThe insurance on the truck, aka, liability insurance, doesn't cover while the vehicle is being stolen, so there is no coverage there.    The employee isn't responsible for the theft in any way, so his insurance won't pay.  \n\nIf you have no coverage on your motor home, you're SOL.  Sorrry.  Maybe your state has a victim's fund that might help you out with damages.

no way, sorry. what you have is an asset, not an expense. \n\nif the money was stolen or the contractor went out of biz, you might have a casualty loss.

Did you owe your employer any advances, premiums for insurance or products/services that had not been paid?  They can hold onto that portion but have you contacted them or just assumed they haven't.  You may need to pick it up & sign for receiving your final pay.

Ordinarily not.  However, as the other answer indicates, if the item is employment-related, then the reimbursement may be compensation.  You need to provide more information:  What is the nature of the item being reumbursed, and what are the circumstances for its reimbursement?

The landlord is not liable for stolen items. . . I would suggest getting renter's insurance.  It is very affordable and will cover any important property that is damaged or stolen.  Landlords who are living in the same building as the tenants can pretty much rent to whomever they want (I believe they can even discriminate in some states).  I get the feeling that you're renting a room out of a large house (sorry not sure what you meant by homestay) . . . if that is the case, I would confront the landlord and say something to the gist of "Hey, some of my things are missing and I would really like to protect my privacy.  Is there any way I can get a lock put on my door where you and I are the only keyholders?"  I'm so sorry to hear about your stuff that has gone missing!  I hope this is helpful!

I left everything at the company when I quit my job.  Anything I wanted, I made copies of before I left.  I didn't want to have to deal with anyone questioning whether I was "stealing" something that didn't belong to me.  It's not worth it.

You probably are a horrible employee, so no.\n\nYou can't sue an employer for your own incompetence.

request it from the company, if they won't provide it your lawyer can subpoena it for you.

how about when you have lost something and they say where did you lose it at

It depends on the items that are missing.  If it's money that's missing and being embezzeled, just go past your superiors and straight to the cops.  If it's company property that's missing such as office supplies or sales merchandise and you've gone through the proper channels then that's about all you can do.  I would recommend that you document everything you notice.  Make sure to include dates, times and names if possible.  Then you would have it as backup if anybody were to try and accuse you.

Depending on who was at fault..If it was the sales person...Definately...For the amount lost...Immediate termination and possibly charges laid,,,\n\nIf it was the customer...No....They, then become liable...However, you may and probably have to forfeit any commission or compensation back to the business....\n\nHope all works out...Yukoneze

So true!  If all the documentation looks right on paper, then the employer would be in violation of the law for not hiring them.  We'd all accuse them of discrimination.  What a joke!  The employers can't win for loosing, it's double jeapordy.  I think we need to put the blame where it belongs.  Boil it down to the bottom of the pot people!  We're dealing with a huge majority of thieves.  I pray non of you get hit.
