It's really none of those things. Employees can be quite clever in ways I would never imagine. They could hold back placing the oldest out first, depleting the freshest and viola! A dozen sandwiches to take home beecause they expired. Or the food manufacturer who accidentally fills jars with an allergen sequence out of step, causing it all to be good product but unsellable and the employees get to take it home because of the "mistake".

The steps companies take are to prevent past documented means of theft and liability issues which have happened. The policies are corrective action.

Isn’t it an interesting micro-cosim example on how government passes laws and how the people if motivated enough find ways around them?
