What Is An Employee Investigation?

Employee investigations are needed for many reasons. It is conducted in response to any illegal activity or complaint during the employee’s current tenure, allegations made against an ex-employee, or checking the background and profiling of a recruit. If the employee doesn’t stick to the company’s policies, goes against the interests of the company, partners with a rival, share confidential information with a third-party, engages in embezzlement, is accused of sexual harassment, causes unwarranted financial loss to the company, etc., employee investigations become necessary.

Privin Consulting Network has unmatched experience with employee and workplace investigations. We would help you get to the bottom of the matter with our experience, knowledge, expertise, resources, and vast network, which an internal HR-led investigation cannot do. It is always better to allow a third-party private investigation team to lead the employee investigation because you don’t want any biased or loose-ended investigation that provides inconclusive results and may negatively beat other employees’ morale.

Talk To Our Investigators

Regardless of the reasons why you need employee investigations, relying on an internal investigation or not doing any investigation at all can result in far-reaching consequences that can disrupt your and the organization’s future irreversibly.

A private investigator may field the inquiry prior to reaching out in order to understand the situation and prepare. Questions asked by the agent may be one or all of the following:

Does this investigation have reasonable purpose?
Where is the Subject or Matter located?
Can you provide specific information in which you are seeking to obtain?
Do you have any knowledge or intel that you would like our agents to investigate further?
What information on the Subject or matter have you found already?
Would you like any close associates or persons investigated as well?

Your Investigation:

Once a case action plan has been identified, your assigned private detective will begin the investigation. An example of the investigative process may look like such:

Immediate Action. Your case will be immediately assigned and work will begin within the first 12-24 hours.
Corroborating facts. Is the information provided to the investigator sound?
Execution of Case Action Plan. We assign the most fit investigator to achieve the most valuable results.
Case Action Updates. Your investigator will provide you with status updates and obtained information regularly.
Facts. After obtaining the information sought after, we comb through the case file and ensure no steps or information had been missed.

Our team of highly trained professional investigators will obtain information on the specific person or object. Actions in accordance with legal guidelines, time tailored for your case, and proper reporting are all necessary for a private investigator to fulfill a proper investigation.
