Unfair competition

Theft / Fraud in the workplace

Theft in the workplace can occur in many ways: theft of goods, money, time, information. Your company may be a victim of internal shoplifting or of money theft through false expenses claims. In some businesses, time theft can become a serious issue. This is the case in retail businesses, for example, where employees are generally paid hourly.

You may also feel that confidential information is being leaked within the organization and you have reason to suspect that an employee may be the source of the leak. After hiring an employee, you have doubts about his or her abilities and may feel that you have been the victim of identity fraud? Or, on the other hand, you may have witnessed unfair hiring practices or instances of harassment or discrimination.

Theft and fraud are the subject of a large number of corporate investigations. Trust VIP Investigations to put an end to your doubts and get you the evidence you need.

Surveillance methods used by VIP Investigations

Surveillance is an effective method of gathering information, conducted anonymously. It includes a variety of techniques for documenting the actions and information relating to an individual or individuals. One or more methods of surveillance, depending on the situation and requirements, may be employed. These techniques include the following:

Shadowing (car, on foot, stationary, by GPS)
Shadowing is a surveillance method that consists of following the trail of an individual in order to know his or her whereabouts and activities. Our agents can carry out shadowing by car, on foot, by GPS or in a stationary way, but always in absolute discretion.
Video and audio recording
Video surveillance and wiretapping are reliable methods of providing tangible and irrefutable evidence. VIP Investigations uses state of the art remote listening device technology and DVR through the use of miniature cameras to monitor any suspicious activity.
Cyber research
Cyber research refers to the monitoring of an individual’s actions on the Internet. It includes research on social networks and other digital platforms, on dating sites. It also includes the search for information from all digital traces left by an individual using a computer: emails, browsing history, personal information, etc. This type of surveillance can also be carried out by infiltration on social networks, for example.

Any type of surveillance must remain legal and that is why it is important to use the services of qualified professionals. Illegally obtained evidence will automatically be rejected by the courts. Furthermore, all information obtained through our surveillance services is documented in the form of reports, upon request.
