What would you have them do. This is typical policy of retail. They don't get paid enough to get hurt.

It is also a questionable choice to steal Iphones. Those things are surveillance magnets

    We shouldn't have a society where getting hurt was only a matter of getting paid the right amount.

    For something like workplace safety, sure, we should have a regulatory body that researches, teaches, and enforces good safety practices so no one gets hurt putting up a building or running a fryer or whatever.

    If there is an armed gang hurting my neighbors and family - dealing with them is going to have risk of getting hurt, and I hope we pay someone enough to make that risk worthwhile for them and the loved ones they could potentially leave behind.
