In today’s fast-paced business environment, leveraging technology for efficient workplace investigations is more critical than ever.

Our services, including surveillance, interviews, scene inspections, background checks, social media searches, are designed to support human resources and risk management professionals in maintaining a safe and compliant workplace.
The Importance of Workplace Investigations
Workplace investigations are essential for addressing issues such as internal theft, drug abuse, workplace violence, sexual harassment, and discrimination claims. These issues can significantly impact a company’s bottom line, morale, productivity, and reputation. By conducting thorough and discreet investigations, we help employers mitigate these risks and foster a culture of trust and accountability.
Surveillance Technology
- Covert and Overt Cameras: Utilizing state-of-the-art surveillance equipment, we capture high-quality video evidence that is crucial for resolving workplace disputes.
- Rolling Surveillance: For employees working outside the office, such as sales or delivery personnel, our rolling surveillance techniques ensure comprehensive monitoring.
Digital Forensics
- Social Media Searches: Our investigators use advanced tools to analyze social media activity, uncovering critical information that may not be available through traditional means.
- Online Research: We conduct thorough online investigations to gather background information and verify facts.
Data Analytics

- Background Checks: Comprehensive background checks are conducted using sophisticated databases to ensure accuracy and completeness.
Proactive Measures for Risk Prevention
Taking a proactive approach to workplace investigations can prevent minor issues from becoming significant liabilities. Here are some strategies we recommend:
- Regular Security Audits: Conducting regular physical security analyses helps identify potential vulnerabilities and prevent security breaches.
- Policy Audits: Regularly reviewing and updating company policies ensures compliance with legal standards and reduces the risk of violations.
- Employee Training: Providing ongoing training on workplace safety and compliance helps employees understand their responsibilities and reduces the likelihood of incidents.
Addressing Common Challenges
Human resources and risk management professionals often face several challenges during workplace investigations, including:
- Information Overload: Sorting through vast amounts of data can be overwhelming. Our systematic approach ensures that all relevant information is collected and analyzed efficiently.
- Incomplete Data: Gaps in information can hinder case strategy. We cross-reference multiple sources to verify facts and fill in missing details.
