Lost and Found Policies

Lost and Found policies are guidelines that help organizations manage items that are lost or left behind by customers, visitors, or employees. If you lose something, you typically report it to the designated department or office, which then catalogs and stores items until they are claimed. When an item is found, staff log it and try to match it with its owner. These policies specify how long items are kept, how owners can claim them, and any procedures for verifying ownership. They aim to ensure lost property is handled securely, efficiently, and fairly.
