Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Self-scanning reduces the need for staffed checkout lanes, and thus decreases labor costs for a retailer. While it may also improve pilferage and age-restricted sales control, these are not the major advantages associated with self-scanning. Furthermore, it is unlikely that a retailer will be able to do away with all cashiers completely, as some customers may still prefer traditional checkout lanes or encounter issues while using self-scanning machines.
