All workplace incidents are not created equal

Sometimes ethics and fraud investigations exceed an internal investigator’s experience or the incident requires a third party. Business Controls is the only organization of its kind to help you discover issues through our anonymous reporting hotline services and provide a full continuum of risk management solutions to investigate, resolve, and prevent further occurrences of misconduct.

Workplace Investigation Burden of Proof
It’s less than you might think

Burden of proof for a workplace ethics investigation is nowhere near ‘beyond a shadow of a doubt’. In fact, that criminal burden of proof isn’t always relevant. A company’s burden of proof is considerably less than that of a criminal investigation to be legally defensible should it go to court. 

Investigation Philosophy and Approach

Our investigators have helped clients with everything from the heartbreaking to the jaw-dropping incidents. Every investigation is conducted respectfully and without prejudice to get to the heart of the incident.
