Employee Investigations and Background Checks
One way we can assist private companies is by gathering information about employee-related issues, such as injury claims, long-term sickness and moonlighting.
Discreet Investigation
Employers wishing to investigate staff that are deliberately undermining the company often feel trapped, considering the complex legalities surrounding the employment relationship. The need for discretion in any workplace investigation is paramount. Our private investigators work closely with a number of HR departments and directors to protect businesses against rogue employees and financial losses.
Employee Investigations may be investigating the claims or severity of an accident at work or the need for long term sick leave, or we may assist with solving cases of workplace theft. This may involve surveillance and person tracing, among other services. Where there is a specific accusation, we provide proportional solutions that are not only optimal for the particular problem at hand, but also in line with all employment contracts and relevant legislation.

Employee Investigation FAQ's
More often than not the investigation will be done internally and by a line manager.
The problem with this is that they may not have the necessary investigation skills, they may be biased as they know the employee, the investigation may take longer than required and the results may not be as thorough leading to poor decision making.
FAQ
The length of the investigation will depend on the nature of the case, the severity of the accusation and the level of evidence that is required. Employee investigations tend to range from 10-21 days, however some cases are solved in a couple of days and some take in excess of 30 days.
