Workplace Theft and Financial Loss: The Role of Private Investigators

Theft in the workplace remains one of the most persistent challenges facing businesses. It can take the form of stolen cash, pilfered inventory, embezzled funds, or misappropriated data. While internal audits may flag discrepancies, they often cannot reveal the full story of how losses occurred, who was responsible, and how to prevent further harm.

The true cost of theft

Employee theft costs American businesses billions every year. The financial impact is immediate, but the damage to morale, trust, and reputation is often just as significant. Once suspicions of theft arise, leaders must act carefully. Accusations without proof can create liability, while inaction allows misconduct to continue unchecked.
