Four saleswomen at a Tea supermarket in Djakovo in eastern Croatia have to pay for the 3,800 kunas (519 Euros) stolen by an armed robber on 12 January.
The daily 24 sata has reported that market owner Bozo Omazic told the employees they each needed to pay 950 kunas (139 Euros) and to provide written confirmation of having done so.
Omazic said the employees were responsible for the stolen money because they had ignored his repeated warnings to keep a minimum amount of money in the cash desk.
An employee who wanted to remain anonymous said: "We suffered a great shock and now have to pay for that. We refuse to. We did not rob the market."
Zeljko Buljubasic, market retail-sales director, said they would not be fined and the company would not dock their pay but just wanted to put psychological pressure on them.
He added: "We need to use such a measure because we warned them many times to keep most of the money in the cash desk. We told them that to protect them and to discipline them. Our insurance will cover the loss, but we want them to take their jobs with money seriously."

This sounds like immature capitalism where you try to punish your employees who are in harm's way for doing what any sensible employee would do? If the store is known to be vulnerable then the owner should invest in security. And what about the "inspectors" who could stop by anytime to check the sales receipts? Isn't the cash in the registers supposed to reflect the amount of the receipts? Bosses can't just make up the rules based on their own whims and then make their employees suffer the consequences as though the boss owned them.
