Employee Misconduct - Decision Risks

From rank and file employees to the most senior executives, increasing numbers are becoming involved in the misuse of assets. This can have devastating effects, such as eroding the profits of a company, threatening an organisation's wellbeing and destroying a company's reputation.

This can happen in a number of ways, including fraud, improper relations and conflicts of interest.

In the latter case, conflicts can arise in dealing with customers, suppliers, friends, family members, competitors and other employees.

This can involve the diversion of assets or overpayment for contracts or services/products supplied.

There are lots of ways that people can conspire to undermine and put you at a disadvantage. These include breach of duty, exceeding delegated authorities, corruptly arranging for outsiders to win tenders, colluding with outsiders to allow them to receive preferential treatment, and failing to act responsibly.

Do you worry about an employee passing on key information to a competitor, the media or government agency? Do you worry about an employee remaining behind to siphon off sensitive details and supply others with the competitive edge? Perhaps you have concerns that employees have set up on their own at your expense, or are thinking of doing so?

You may also have concerns about aspects of an employee's conduct. Common among these are gambling addiction, substance abuse, over indebtedness, indiscretion, behavioural issues or other personal circumstances that may be compromising their role.

With the proliferation of email and internet access we are witnessing considerably more misconduct from misguided employees. This can happen in various ways, such as:

Sending harassing or anonymous communications to undermine co-workers or the organisation
Deleting or corrupting computer files as a malicious act when an employee leaves
Transferring files for later use in another venture
Deliberate acts of sabotage involving the computer network or machinery
Acts of sabotage that ruin key customer or stakeholder relationships
