🔍 How to uncover a fake sick leave without breaking the law

Sick leave is a legitimate right for any worker, but it can also be used fraudulently or abusively, becoming a problem for employers. A fake sick leave results in financial losses and affects the fairness of the workplace.

At Cerberus, we help businesses and individuals verify whether a medical leave is real, always acting within the law and with complete discretion.


💡 What can a private investigator do in these cases?

A private investigator is legally authorized to obtain information about private matters that affect the workplace. In the case of suspected fraud, we can:

  • Observe the worker's activity during the sick leave period

  • Check if they are performing actions incompatible with their claimed condition

  • Confirm if they are working for another business while on leave

  • Gather objective evidence of non-compliance

All investigations respect privacy and are fully compliant with current laws.


🧾 What kind of evidence do we gather?

In these cases, we typically provide:

📸 Photos or videos of the worker doing physical tasks

📍 Log of locations visited during their sick leave

🕒 Activity records that contradict medical restrictions

🧾 Detailed reports with a clear chronological structure

📂 Ability to testify in labor or criminal court if needed

Our goal is to protect the interests of the company, without using illegal or invasive tactics.


❓ When is it advisable to investigate a sick leave?

Common warning signs include:

  • Well-founded suspicions from colleagues or managers

  • Social media activity inconsistent with a medical leave

  • Repeat patterns of leave during sensitive periods

  • Anonymous tips suggesting possible deception

  • Significant financial loss caused by the absence

Having legal and objective evidence can be key in making internal or legal decisions.
