Human Resources Issues
When your human resources department needs help above and beyond the norm.
At Martin Investigative Services, we not only investigate wrongdoing by employees, but we also consult with Human Resources professionals in your organization to solve issues in a effective, efficient, and confidential manner.
Situations we can help you resolve include:
- Personal problems of employees such as substance abuse or gambling
- Co-worker relationships
- Racism or sexual harassment claims
- Disruptive divorce proceedings
- Moonlighting
- Criminal charges
- Personal use of corporate resources
- Excessive sick time
- Workers Comp or Insurance fraud
With over 35 years professional experience, our investigators can assist your company with just about any personnel issue you may have. There is never a fee for a consultation with one of our staff members - call us any time at (800) 577-1080, or use our contact form.
Our involvement in the process can help you avoid business interruptions, negative publicity, personal embarrassment, and costly legal fees. Starting the process with fact-finding and documentation is usually more effective from both a cost and results perspective than using a team of lawyers. In our experience, many HR managers are not well-suited for potentially confrontational and/or embarrassing interactions with senior-level employees and practice avoidance instead of seeking resolution.
Our consultants will assist you by interviewing the parties involved to fully understand the personalities and issues at hand and then work with your company to resolve these issues internally in a discreet and professional manner.

A Human Resources Director called us at the direction of the Chairman of the Board and informed us that the President was known to be having an affair with a subordinate. Notwithstanding the fact that the executive was married, company policy expressly prohibited such office relationships. The clients also determined that there was a significant risk of legal action by the female against the company and the executive if and when the relationship eventually became public.
Although the affair was routinely known and discussed within the company, the Chairman had no hard evidence to support termination of the employees for violating company policy. We were engaged to operate a ten-day surveillance, which soon caught both subjects in compromising positions and places on videotape.
After presenting our findings to the corporate board, we discussed strategic options to resolve the situation. Our goal? To minimize the risk of a lawsuit from either party. The board agreed that we should manage the termination process for both employees in a discreet and confidential manner using the video evidence as justification. This enabled the client’s Human Resources department to maintain a level of separation from the process to minimize legal risk while effectively bringing the situation to a close.
