I've heard some places do A, but it feels extreme!

I disagree with A, that seems too harsh.

I feel like B might be a bit extreme. Searching lockers and desks seems like it could lead to legal issues if not handled properly.

I remember a practice question that mentioned notifying security, so I wonder if D could also be a requirement in some cases.

I'm not so sure about A. I feel like escorting the employee immediately might not always be necessary, depending on the situation.
