Did you know that approximately 5% of corporate profit is lost due to fraudulent activities? In a large number of cases, tracking the source is absolutely possible, if the right approach is chosen. The vast detective experience of Active CSI allows us to create a tactical and effective approach, assuring optimal results. Of course we are bound by the law and regulations in our field of work.

Observation

Observational research can be an outcome in many cases of corporate fraud. Employees who falsely claim to be incapacitated or signed a competition clause that might be breached. If you have a suspicion that something’s not right, we can provide you with an overview of the activities of your (former) employee. These overviews are often supported with photos and enable you to get rid or receive compensation from people who form a financial burden to your organization.

Competition clause

Your former employees possess a great deal of information about your organization. Your client database, your company processes and other confidential information. Of course you will want to prevent the information you have so carefully gathered from ever backfiring on you. A step often taken by employers is adding a ‘competition clause’ to the contact, which prohibits employees from using the information received from your company for a certain amount of time. But what to do if this clause is breached? Active CSI supports you in these steps by delivering the conclusions of our corporate fraud investigation to you.

Our experienced professional detectives are able to map exactly what kind of work your former employee is doing nowadays and which addresses he visits. Based on our report, you can either choose to confront your former employee with the results and possible consequences, or take more action and file a lawsuit. As Active CSI is both completely bound by the law as well as licensed by the Dutch Department of Justice, our reports may be used as legal evidence in a lawsuit.

Fraudulent sick leave

Do you have an employee who calls in sick on just about every occasion? Are you in doubt whether he or she is really sick or just doesn’t want to come to work? If you would be able to proof this suspected unrightfully incapacitation of that employee, you’ll get yourself a solid argument that you could use to terminate the contract. This proof is exactly what Active CSI will go looking for.

The only cost more expensive than personnel is personnel that is absent for improper reasons. The costs of an investigation are very limited in comparison to the monthly burden on your balance caused by this employee.

Internal theft

Observational research can be an outcome in many cases of corporate fraud. Employees who falsely claim to be incapacitated or signed a competition clause that might be breached. If you have a suspicion that something’s not right, we can provide you with an overview of the activities of your (former) employee. These overviews are often supported with photos and enable you to get rid or receive compensation from people who form a financial burden to your organization.
