Retail Wire: Should Self-Checkout Kiosks Be Regulated to Reduce Theft?
California bill SB 1446, introduced by Senator Smallwood-Cuevas, aims to regulate self-checkout systems in grocery and retail drug establishments. If passed, the bill would impose conditions on self-service checkout, such as limiting the number of stations per employee and ensuring the availability of manned checkout counters. It also restricts the use of self-checkout for certain items and requires businesses to assess the impact of such technology on jobs.
