Experienced Employee Theft Investigations
Since 1981, we have built extensive experience in identifying dishonest employees through investigative work. We combine this expertise with professional polygraph testing to deliver reliable results when addressing employee theft. Our services are fully compliant with the Employee Polygraph Protection Act of 1988 (EPPA).
Employee Theft and Business Losses
Statistics vary on the exact impact of employee dishonesty on retail businesses, but it is estimated that as much as 80% of all losses a business incurs can be attributed to employee theft.
Embezzlement Examinations
Embezzlement examinations are a specialized form of polygraph testing designed to address unresolved employee theft or financial misconduct. Call us for a free consultation before taking any action related to suspected employee theft. We also recommend familiarizing yourself with the Employee Polygraph Protection Act (EPPA) laws and procedures by reviewing the forms provided at the bottom of this page.
Law Enforcement Polygraph Testing
Several law enforcement agencies in Nevada, Washington, and Illinois trust us to administer their pre-employment polygraph examinations. Peace officer positions require a specialized background investigation and interview process to determine a candidate’s suitability for these critical positions of trust within our communities.
We meet the testing standards set by the American Polygraph Association and have received advanced training through the American Association of Police Polygraphists. Law enforcement polygraph examinations typically address application integrity, drug history, history of violence, and any serious undisclosed crimes.
Armored Security Polygraph Screening
We provide background verification polygraph screening for the armored security industry. Unfortunately, unscrupulous individuals sometimes seek employment with these companies to facilitate robberies of clients. There have even been high-profile cases where guards have stolen large sums of money and fled the country, never to be apprehended. A thorough pre-employment polygraph examination is an effective tool for preventing dishonest applicants with hidden agendas from ever gaining access to these positions of trust.
Polygraph Testing for Raw Jewelry Handlers
Under the 1988 Employee Polygraph Protection Act (EPPA), raw jewelry handlers are not prohibited from undergoing pre-employment polygraph testing. Jewelers are particularly vulnerable to employee embezzlement and robbery conspiracies. If you are a jeweler, please contact us to learn how our services can help protect your business.
