Employees – Loyal or Unpredictable?

In most cases, employers can rely on their staff. Nevertheless, it must not be overlooked that nationwide, around half of economic crime offences are committed by employees. Often, an employee commits multiple offences in combination, for example, abuse of sick leave together with a breach of a non-compete clause. An employee who takes “sick leave fraudulently” is not only guilty of payroll fraud but also of social benefit fraud. A similar pattern applies to bribery, which frequently occurs alongside industrial espionage (theft of company data) and competition fraud.

 

Offences such as theft and embezzlement to the detriment of companies are usually committed by employees who repeatedly steal from or defraud their employer. Our IHK-certified corporate investigators in Erfurt and Thuringia act on your behalf if you suspect an employee of dishonest behaviour that harms your company. We conduct investigations professionally, thoroughly, and with the utmost discretion. Through research and/or surveillance, we document the offences, identify the individual responsible, and provide you with court-admissible evidence: kontakt@kurtz-detektei-erfurt.de.

A secret “exchange of ideas” with a representative of your main competitor? Just one of many examples of frequent illegal actions by employees, which our Thuringian detectives investigate and provide proof for.

Candidate Screening: Don’t Wait Until Damage Occurs

As a business owner or managing director, you often face a difficult choice and must consider multiple factors: Which applicant is most professionally qualified? Which applicant is reliable and loyal? And which applicant fits the team? You do not have to rely solely on certificates, qualifications, the applicant’s cover letter, or your gut feeling, as the risk of hiring someone who could potentially harm your company – for example, being inserted as an industrial spy by a competitor – can be significant depending on the industry. Our IHK-certified economic investigators provide comprehensive candidate screening, thoroughly reviewing the applicant’s background. Kurtz Corporate Investigation Erfurt and Thuringia verifies the authenticity of submitted application documents, including discreet inquiries with former employers. This allows unwelcome surprises to be largely avoided.
