In today’s competitive environment, employee attrition is a fact of corporate life. Employees either leave an organization because they have more lucrative offers or, their services are terminated by the organization. Many times, when employees having access to sensitive information leave, they take with them confidential information such as databases and other data, which is the intellectual property of the earlier organisation. Such leaks can have a devastating effect on an organization’s success and business strategy.


Many times in case of lay-offs or termination, employees try to impose financial liability on the organisation by threatening to file litigation and sometimes even file a case citing labor laws. This adds a financial burden on the organisation and increases hassles.

Charterhouse investigates the post-employment termination situations of employees to reduce the risk to our clients from disgruntled ex-employees. Investigations provide evidence of the gainful employment of workers who are claiming compensation. Information related to breach of contract by an ex-employee whereby his/her integrity can be questioned, facilitates the client in taking legal action.
