A Johannesburg distribution centre was facing a persistent issue; high-value items were disappearing from shipments with no sign of forced entry or system errors. The problem wasn’t just financial; it was beginning to erode morale and trust across the warehouse team.
Management tried everything: cameras, audits, and additional supervision. Still, the losses continued. That’s when they brought in our team.
We conducted discreet polygraph testing for a select group of employees involved in handling the affected goods. Each session was conducted respectfully and professionally, with clear communication throughout.
The results? One employee showed strong signs of deception. When presented with the findings, they confessed to working with an external accomplice to remove items during offloading. Immediate action was taken, and the theft ring was broken. Losses stopped, and internal trust was restored.
Sometimes, the truth isn’t visible — but it’s always findable.
