Specialized Investigation

Absenteeism Control

Investigation into unlawful sick leave and fraudulent sickness reports.

Overview

Absenteeism places a heavy financial and organizational burden on your business. While the majority of sick reports are genuine, abuse or unlawful absenteeism can cause enormous costs and frustration in the workplace. When you have well-founded suspicions that an employee has falsely reported sick—for example, to work elsewhere (off the books) or to evade reintegration obligations—independent investigation is crucial. Nefesh Investigations conducts discreet and effective factual investigations. We verify the employee's activities during the period of absence and collect objective evidence, always in compliance with applicable privacy laws (such as data protection authority requirements and the code of conduct for private investigation agencies).

Our Method

Professional, discreet field investigation and systematic observation of the employee in question
Thorough investigation into suspicions of secondary activities, competing work, or undeclared employment
Lawful collection of irrefutable photo and video evidence for substantiation
Analysis of online activities and social media profiles that may contradict the sickness report
Preparation of clear, objective, and legally sound reports in preparation for employment law sanctions

When to Request Absenteeism Control?

In cases of strong suspicion of working elsewhere or intensive DIY activities during the sickness period
In the event of a structural or striking pattern of absenteeism (e.g., systematically around weekends or holidays)
In cases of persistent refusal of, or lack of cooperation with, statutory reintegration obligations
When persistent signals or reports are received from within the organization, from colleagues, or external relations
When the employee is unreachable by the employer or occupational health service without a valid reason
