Background Check

BACKGROUND CHECK

A company became worried when its confidential information became available in the market place, always a step ahead of their own market releases. OF&A were called in to establish the leak. They went through an investigative elimination process. It became clear that no electronic eavesdropping could have been involved and OF&A decided to scrutinize the background of employees.

Before long OF&A found that an employee had been employed as a rep with a competitor shortly before the information started leaking out. OF&A then established evidence that he had responded to an advertisement for a position with the client's company. He thereafter worked as an undercover agent for the competitor and fed them with regular confidential information to which he had unlimited access. This proves the importance of thorough pre-employment checks offered by OF&A's experts.
