More details to this question:
I work for retail company. 1200. went missing from coin order delivered by Brinks now 4 of us have been questioned by Lp and then yesterday a police officer cam. e in and read us all our miranda rights and made us sign statements about what we knew. He said that they would be giving us a form of lie detector called PSE and checking our bank accts and credit scores. I do not think this is legal according to what I have read, and I do not wanna lose my job but this is getting out of hand. One of the parties that was present when the incident occured has not been questioned and has since left the company. How can a thorough investigation be done if all parties involved have not been accounted for. Also there are no cameras in the store. The bills stolen were 1''s 5''s and 10''s.

As a general matter, an employer may fire its employees for any reason or no reason at all. The employee's failure or refusal to cooperate in loss-prevention programs may certainly be used as a basis for termination.
As to whether your employer can have access to your bank account information without your consent, the answer is "no."
