This is a little bit of an ‘oldie’ (it’s from 2014) but it’s still a good point of reference that we use with a lot of potential clients when discussing covert surveillance operations, especially relating to concerns they have with their staff.

The first thing the client always raises is the belief that they are not allowed to arrange such surveillance because it will result in the employee taking legal action against them. It isn’t as clear cut as that and this blog post we’re highlighting this week does a great job of explaining why.

If you believe your employee is acting in a manner that is testament to gross misconduct, affecting your profits and damaging your organisation’s professional reputation then you can utilise our services.

Surveillance of targets carrying out fraudulent or illegal activity in a *public* place IS a service that you can utilise. The important thing, however, is to ensure that you use a professional in this area to ensure you maintain YOUR own position on the right side of the law!

Keep an eye on a future Surmount Investigations blog post where we provide a case study of a successful surveillance and investigation of an employee on behalf of their employer that subsequently uncovered over thousands of pounds in fuel theft.
