Warning signs

Warning signs:

Disgruntled employee

An employee who is likely to commit fraud may do so after being denied a vacation request or being reprimanded.

Hard-to-reach employee

Trouble contacting an employee on medical leave may be a sign the employee is working another job while collecting benefits.

New employee

Statistically, the newer the employee, the more likely the claim is fraudulent.

No witnesses

A flag should go up if no one can corroborate the story.

Different stories

Beware if the story varies from you, medical professionals, peers or witnesses.

Accident day

Accidents on Mondays or Fridays should raise concern.
