Walmart is testing out putting body cameras on some of its employees with a focus on employee safety.
One photo from a store in the pilot program showed a poster with directions on how to use the camera in case an encounter with a customer escalates.
A recent survey found around 35% of retailers are researching the use of body cameras for employees and loss-prevention personnel.
The program will help determine if the cams can help de-escalate situations with customers.
