It is called accountability. Charging for the missing part is enforcing that accountability. An employee who feels he has no responsibility for 6 grand in parts in his van is not an employee I would want. an employee who balks at being held accountable for that material is definatly not an employee I would want.
in the words of Ronald Regan trust but verify.
If you can prove that there is $6,000 in parts missing from the service van and you can show that they were not installed, then you need to get a lawyer and find out what your best options are. I would still say the burden of proof is on you to show that those materials should, in fact, still be on the truck. That would mean going back over however many months of invoicing and proving that materials were purchased that should already have been on the truck and both are now gone. It ain't gonna be easy, but $6k is a lot of materials on a service truck.
Edit: I think I may have misread the quoted post. If there aren't actually $6k in materials missing from your truck, ignore my post.
