FMLA Investigations

FMLA Cases

The Family & Medical Leave Act is an important piece of legislation instituted in 1993 to support Americans during difficult times. Suppose an employee is seriously injured or develops any serious health condition or need to take care of someone in the family, such as ailing parents or a sick child. In that case, they are eligible to take FMLA leave to get some relief. FMLA can be paid, unpaid, or intermittent, and help protect the employee from losing their job. However, with the many benefits of FMLA, variations of FMLA abuses are also becoming popular. Some of the top reasons why employees may commit FMLA abuse are –

  • Limitation of work hours available with them
  • Pending any workforce reductions
  • Opportunities to earn outside their full-time or regular employment
  • Desire to take time off without having to worry about job loss

FMLA abuse can lead to morale issues among other employees in the company as they are often burdened with the extra workload. However, proving FMLA abuse can be tedious and time consuming for employers. It is why engaging the services of Privin Consulting Network can help employers ensure there is no FMLA abuse.

Why Do You Need Our FMLA Investigation Services?

When employers fail to conduct a complete investigation related to suspicious FMLA claims, they open themselves to lawsuits that can be pretty expensive and a PR nightmare. FMLA cases can also be uncomfortable for the internal corporate team as it leads to a low level of trust between the employer and the employee. Suppose the employer has a reasonable amount of suspicion that an employee might be missing FMLA cases. In that case, it is best to hire a third-party investigator to perform due-diligence so that the investigation cannot be impeached later due to an accusation of biasness by the internal team.

Privin Consulting Network is experienced in gathering verified intelligence in FMLA cases. Our knowledgeable team of investigators can identify the risks in the suspected employee’s background that could offer crucial hints in the investigation. Our investigators look into different factors such as litigation history, bad credit, and others that might indicate that the employee is abusing the FMLA leave. Armed with all this information, you will be in a better position to make the best decision for your employee and your company. Employers will also have all the evidence they need to protect themselves from any wrongful termination lawsuits.
