Professional Sickness & Absenteeism Investigations in Knutsford
Employee absence can be a legitimate issue, but it becomes a costly risk to your business when exploited. At Hunter Investigations, we conduct discreet, legal, and effective workplace investigations across Knutsford to uncover fraudulent sick leave, absenteeism abuse, and staff misconduct. Our investigators provide the evidence you need to make informed HR decisions and protect your company from ongoing loss.
What Is a Sickness & Absence Investigation?
Our investigators specialise in gathering evidence when an employee's sickness claims seem suspicious. We monitor activities, track movements, and document behaviour to determine if leave is being misused. Whether your concern involves false injury claims, moonlighting, or extended absenteeism, we help you regain control with accurate, admissible findings.
