A Private Investigator Can Help with Employee Absenteeism Problems
The economy and many employers are suffering from regular occurrences of increased employee absenteeism. Insight Investigations have a team of experienced private investigators who can help eradicate and uncover cases of unnecessary employee absence.
Employee absenteeism is a problem that at some time will almost certainly affect every company. It could be a short, mid or long term absence situation that causes and employer to question the validity of an employee's absence.
Recent figures released by the Confederation of British Industry showed that the cost to the British economy in 2009 was estimated to be approximately 17 billion pounds. The Office for National Statistics reported a weekly average in 2009 of 613,000 employees absent from work per week.
The Government themselves are taking a hard line with anybody on long term sickness benefits who may not be genuine, there is no reason why employers should not take the same measures to protect their business interests and future survival.
With such astounding statistics it is little wonder employers are looking for a discreet solution to help them with the growing number of employee absenteeism cases. Hiring a private investigator is a great way to ensure your employees privacy is taken into account and also to prove beyond doubt whether or not an employee is genuine in their absence from the workplace.
In the current economy and the focus on employment law higher than ever, employers need to be certain that employees are acting in a responsible manner. No employer would want to wrongly accuse any employee that is genuinely of with illness, however in uncertain times it has been found that an employer's suspicion can be wholly founded.
This is where Insight Investigations private investigators can help to prove whether or not there is indeed a discrepancy in the employee's absence. Insight have many years experience in helping companies with employee absenteeism cases and have sighted examples of employees working elsewhere whilst claiming sickness payments, starting business in competition with their employer and also claiming illness when there is no illness present.
Insights private detectives can carry out discreet surveillance to gain evidence that will ascertain the validity of a claim for sickness payments from an employer and ensure that the investigation will not come to the immediate attention of an employee. This helps to protect the employer/employee relationship in genuine cases.
As well as carrying out surveillance a private detective will gather evidence to see if unlawful absence is indeed the reason for the employee not being present at work, this evidence will be presented in a formal way that can be used to proceed the matters to an industrial tribunal if required.
It is worth baring in mind that not all employee absenteeism will be unlawful, however in uncertain economic times if you do suspect an employees absence to be unwarranted then Insight Investigations can help. Please visit http://www.investigate.co.uk for a full range of services.
