Frequently Asked Questions

Find answers to the most common questions regarding the management and verification of sick leave.

On average, a standard investigation (CV verification, diplomas and references) takes 3 to 5 working days. For sensitive positions involving more in-depth checks (criminal records, moral investigation), the process can take up to 2 weeks. We keep human resources departments informed of progress at each stage.
No, monitoring sick leave must be justified by concrete and objective elements. It cannot be triggered systematically. We assist human resources managers in identifying legitimate cases and respecting the principle of proportionality, advising you on strategy and required evidence.
Our investigators are certified by the CNAPS and specifically trained in labor law. Each HR mission is preceded by a complete legal analysis, respecting the Labor Code, GDPR and collective agreements. We act with full transparency towards human resources departments to ensure total compliance.
