For a business to succeed, it needs the right people, including employees, managers, suppliers, and customers. However, these very people can sometimes cause risks that harm the company. Some common scenarios include:
- Employees may steal merchandise or intellectual property or make costly mistakes because of lack of skill or preparation.
- A new business partner could lie about their expertise, business connections, or financial status.
- Customers may fail to pay for goods that have already been delivered.
- Suppliers might not deliver crucial goods on time.
- Cybersecurity threats or brand harm could result from malicious actions like brandjacking.
To protect your business from these risks, it’s important to anticipate problems before they happen. If damage has already occurred, Top Tier Investigations can help you recover. Here’s how our private investigator services can make a difference:
Background Checks: When hiring new employees or considering a business partner, it’s essential to know what you’re getting into. Our private investigators can dig deep into a person’s background to uncover hidden issues such as criminal records, drug problems, or financial instability. This way, you can make an informed decision before making a commitment.
Evaluating Security Systems and Operations: We can assess your company’s security setup and test your operations to spot weaknesses that may leave you vulnerable to fraud or theft. Techniques like secret shopping can help identify gaps in your operations, preventing future losses.
Insurance Investigations: If an employee is off work due to an injury, it’s important to ensure they are not abusing the system. Our investigators can look into cases of workplace insurance fraud, using surveillance to track the employee’s movements and gather evidence of malingering or false claims.
Investigating Fraud and Theft: Employees or external actors can steal goods or intellectual property from your business, sometimes using technology to do so without being caught. Top Tier Investigations can track and catch fraudsters, providing photographic or video evidence to stop the crime in its tracks.
Investigating Workplace Issues: Complaints about harassment or bullying may be hard to investigate because employees often behave well when they know they are being watched. Our investigators can discreetly dig deeper and uncover troubling behaviors that could be affecting your workplace environment.
Skip Tracing: If a key employee or asset goes missing, it’s crucial to track them down quickly. Our skilled private investigators are experts at locating individuals who have gone off the radar, saving you valuable time and effort.
