Unfortunately, there are many employees that have been it their goal to find new ways to work the system and get money that isn\u2019t rightfully theirs. It is important that you are paying close attention to any warning signs so you can protect yourself as an employer. Here are some warning signs you should be looking for.<br \/>\n&#8211;\tLack of Witnesses: If there is no one around to vouch for the incident that injured your employee, this is a big sign that they could be making it up to begin with.<br \/>\n&#8211;\tElaborate Stories: Of course, you can\u2019t totally rule out any circumstances that could injure one of your employees, but if the story they are feeding you is highly unlikely, take a better look at the facts and make sure they aren\u2019t being dishonest.<br \/>\n&#8211;\tLate Reports: Historically speaking, many employees that got hurt on Friday, but wait to file the claim until Monday, are probably not telling the truth. If someone is truly hurt, they won\u2019t wait to make the claim and get things rolling.<br \/>\n&#8211;\tCheck Social Media: Sometimes people just aren\u2019t that smart about what they are willing to post on social media. If your employee has claimed they are hurt and then you look online to see that they are going on some outdoor adventure, it\u2019s worth raising your eyebrows about.<br \/>\n&#8211;\tConflicting Reports: If the report your employee is giving and the medical report aren\u2019t matching up, something is fishy.<br \/>\n&#8211;\tDeclined Treatment: When an employee isn\u2019t being forthcoming about an injury, they will often decline getting any testing or treatment for the injury.<br \/>\n&#8211;\tSuspicious Providers: Sometimes it isn\u2019t just employees that work the system. There are some medical providers that will go along with the story for a cut at the profits. They usually have a reputation, and you should look out for them. <\/p>\n<h2>Private Investigations, Security &#038; More in Greater Miami, Sunny Isles, Fort Lauderdale, Boca Raton, Weston, Plantation City &#038; Miami Gardens Florida<\/h2>\n<p>If you suspect that <a href=\"http:\/\/www.advancedglobalsecurity.com\/florida\/our-services\/private-investigators\/\">one of your employees is working the system<\/a>, call on the professional private investigators at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.advancedglobalsecurity.com\/florida\/us\/\">Advanced Private Investigator and Security of Miami, FL<\/a> to help you get to the bottom of it.
