Most employers will expressly tell you not to chase shoplifters, not to follow them out of the store, and not to accuse them of theft. Doing so can very well result in being written up or even fired. Some places only train and authorize Loss Prevention associates and Assistant/Head Managers, though others probably send Department Managers and such to training courses, as well. If nothing actually goes wrong or there is no real publicity generated then getting away with it likely comes down to how local management feels about it.
