Our comprehensive approach ensures that potential violations are thoroughly investigated, providing you with the evidence and insight needed to take decisive action. Safeguard your business’s competitive edge with Lauth Investigations International.

Workers’ Compensation Fraud Investigations

When workers’ compensation agreements are breached, it is a violation of the contract set between employer and employee, and can be of major detriment to employers, when profits are eroded and compensation insurance premiums go up. As with FMLA fraud claims, workers’ compensation investigations must be triggered by a reasonable suspicion that the employee is intentionally defrauding their employer of benefits by claiming injury on company time. Lauth’s workers’ compensation investigations are executed with due-diligence and objectivity in the interest of documenting the unseen factors in workers’ compensation claims. Each investigation concludes with comprehensive reports and expert recommendations.

Harassment & Discrimination Investigations

Harassment and discrimination are ever-changing beasts, now even more rampant in the digital era. They can take place on the job, in the home, and under the radar and usually carry a high level of scrutiny on behalf of investigating parties who must have the diverse experience to sift through they-said, they-sad narratives and get to the truth. As a result, harassment and discrimination investigations need a seasoned private investigator to independently document and expose these types of personal or workplace harassment and discrimination — a specialty at Lauth Investigations, who uses comprehensive intelligence services to document patterns of sexual harassment and discrimination for both employees and private citizens.

Collaboration with Legal Teams

To make sure that all of the evidence gathered is acceptable in court, Lauth Investigations International collaborates closely with legal teams. Our investigators have received legal procedural training and are aware of the subtleties in presenting evidence in court. This joint-effort raises the likelihood of a successful outcome by guaranteeing our clients receive the greatest assistance available throughout the court process.

How We Work

Comprehensive Interview Techniques

At Lauth, we know that conducting in-depth interviews is essential to a successful investigation. Our investigators are taught to establish a good connection with witnesses in order to foster an atmosphere that is conducive to candid and open dialogue. We can obtain important information that can reveal trends of harassment or discrimination by paying close attention and posing pertinent questions. This thorough approach guarantees that we are looking everywhere for the truth.

Digital Forensics

A large portion of the evidence is available online or on electronic devices in the current digital era. Finding electronic evidence — emails, texts, social media activities, and other digital communications — is a specialty of Lauth’s digital forensics team. When digital traces are left behind, this can be very important in demonstrating instances of harassment and discrimination. We can piece together the contacts and occurrences that qualify as harassment or discrimination by carefully examining digital data.

Psychological Evaluation

Our team assesses the psychological impact of harassment and discrimination, providing a comprehensive view of victims’ experiences, crucial for legal proceedings and ensuring full harm is recognized and addressed. Such evaluation helps to document the emotional and mental harm caused by such incidents, providing a comprehensive view of the victim’s experience. This information can be critical in legal proceedings, ensuring that the full extent of the harm is recognized and addressed.

Policy Review and Recommendations

Lauth examines the company’s harassment and discrimination policies and procedures in addition to looking at individual cases. We point out holes and flaws in the laws that would allow negative behavior to continue. Our professionals offer doable suggestions to improve these regulations and foster a more secure and civil workplace. Businesses may stop such occurrences and promote an inclusive and respectful culture by proactively addressing these problems.

Training and Education Programs

Education is the first step in stopping harassment and prejudice. Lauth provides management and staff with specialized training packages. These initiatives concentrate on identifying, stopping, and dealing with prejudice and harassment. By educating the workforce, we enable workers to confront unacceptable behavior and foster a positive work atmosphere where everyone is respected and feels safe.

Support for Victims

Beyond just an investigation, victims of discrimination and harassment frequently require assistance. Lauth proudly offers these individuals information and connections to support groups, legal aid, and counseling services. Helping victims recover and regain their self-esteem is our aim, as we think that in order to properly address harassment and discrimination, victim support is essential.

Ongoing Monitoring

A consistent effort is needed to find long-term solutions to harassment and discrimination. Lauth collaborates with clients to create sustainable plans for upholding a polite and safe atmosphere. Regular policy reviews, ongoing training initiatives, and recurring audits to guarantee efficacy and compliance are all part of our commitment. Organizations can create a culture in which harassment and discrimination are not accepted by committing to these long-term solutions and utilizing our recommendations as pillars in how business is done.

Risk Management

Effective risk management is crucial for preventing workers’ compensation fraud. At Lauth Investigations, we help businesses identify and mitigate risks that could lead to fraudulent claims. This includes evaluating safety protocols, conducting regular audits, and training employees on best practices. By proactively managing risks, employers can create a safer work environment and reduce the likelihood of false claims.

Training and Education

It is crucial to inform management and staff on workers’ compensation and the repercussions of fraud. To educate employees about the value of integrity and the legal consequences of deception, Lauth Investigations provides training courses. Reporting suspicious activity and accurately documenting injuries are other topics we discuss in our training sessions. Organizations can discourage fraudulent behavior by cultivating a culture of accountability and transparency.

Advanced Technology

Lauth Investigations leverages modern technology to improve the precision and effectiveness of our investigations. This includes employing sophisticated software for data processing, GPS tracking, and drones for aerial surveillance. Our cutting-edge equipment enables us to obtain thorough evidence in a timely and discrete manner, guaranteeing that our customers get the most accurate information available.
