Investigation - Polygraph Examinations

Polygraph Examinations

T D & K Investigations make use of the latest, most up-to-date Polygraph equipment. This equipment does not only rely on the human element to read charts. Our Polygraph Consultants are now assisted by a computer, which also gives accurate readings based on each test carried out..

D & K's polygraph division makes use of this investigative tool for two specific purposes:

1 - Polygraph Interrogation

2 - Pre-Employment Testing

Polygraph Interrogation:

Polygraph tests would be carried out during any investigations being handled. One must remember that with the help of a Polygraph Examination, the Investigators handling the case can eliminate the suspects at a far quicker pace than normal, thus allowing him or her more time to follow up leads and clues.

Bearing in mind that the Polygraph is not the be all and end all of an investigation, it most definitely an extremely useful Investigative tool.

An example of this is during an investigation for one of the financial institutions, whereby R42 000-00 went missing from an account belonging to one of their clients, a Polygraph test was carried out. The test showed that a Bank client had returned her ATM card for destruction as this individual only wanted to withdraw cash from the counter. However, the staff member in the bank claimed he had destroyed the card, which in fact was not true. He then withdrew a total of R42 000-00 from the client's account.

After conducting the Polygraph Examination , a full confession was obtained and in fact the ATM card was found and destroyed.

It is interesting to note that had the polygraph test not been conducted, then the two investigators handling the case would have had to interview 54 staff members, before beginning their process of elimination. However, with the help of the Polygraph test, only 14 people were tested before the culprit was identified.

Pre-employment Testing

Don't wait until losses put you out of business. Let D & K vet your prospective staff members for you prior to employment. This will also include the polygraphing of an applicant. Pre-employment testing should be done on any candidate who is going to be employed in an environment or area of sensitivity or high security.

Pre-Employment testing has become a major part of our Polygraph Division. D & K Management Consultants has helped many companies, organisations, financial institutions, and the like, in selecting suitable candidates for positions.

In so doing, we have also identified a handful of fraudsters and potential High Risk Candidates, who, without our Polygraph Division's intervention, might well have ended up working in your establishment.

PLEASE NOTE:

All examinations are handled discreetly and within the perimeters of the law. Confidentiality is guaranteed.
