Florida Statutes § 812.173 creates minimum security standards for convenience businesses in Florida. A convenience store must have a security camera that can retrieve images, restricted access to cash, sufficient light in the parking lot, notice that the cash register has $50 or less, a clear view between the cash register and the outside, and limited cash on hand during late hours. Tinted windows are not allowed if they reduce the normal line of sight.
In addition, Florida Statutes § 812.174 requires property owners to train employees in robbery deterrence and safety training. The training curriculum must be approved by the Division of Alcoholic Beverages and Tobacco. The convenience store has 60 days to provide training to new employees.
