We believe we are now one of the most experienced and front running agencies in the UK now dealing with this problem in industry.
Uk Industry loses billions of pounds every year through staff sickness with the average British worker taking 7.2 extra days off per year.
Of course the majority of absenteeism is genuine, however unwarranted "long weekends" and staff "pulling sickies" threatens a company's ability to cover the cost of these absences.
This is where we can help;
We regularly deal with these issues and we come across all extreme examples such as subjects who are carrying out home improvements, renovating their cars, doing private work elsewhere or even having a second life and possibly their own business elsewhere.
Once you determined that you have enough hearsay or advice from independent ways you may then decided to employ us to run an assessment and spot check.
Our methodology and diligence
We will normally liaise with only one contact at the company and will guide that contact through the initial early period, when we will validate the enquiry and the work of the clients before it comes to us, we may also suggest that you run an impact assessment and that you supply us with as much relevant information as possible so we can come to an early conclusion.
We will then asses the situation and instruct the right course to uncover the truth, we will work to set times and date restraints and we will require to only report on what is relevant for our client and position that the subject holds, we would not in any circumstance rely on just sole information from a third party and we would Endeavour to establish ourselves any misdemeanours.
Any assignment undertaken is always handled discreetly and usually can involve unobtrusive surveillance. It may also warrant background research or a combination of many other different skills.
But rest assured that all evidence will be collated in a manner that is presentable in a Court or Industrial Tribunal. All work we undertake will be taken within the restraints of the data protection law and good practice recommendations and employment law part 3.

It is often the fear of hurting the adoptive parents that is the reason that many do not look for answers. Many feel that this could harm the relationship with the adopted parents. However in most cases the bond with the adoptive parents is very strong and most at the time of adoption understand that the day will arrive when the child will grow up and need answers to their background.
It is essential however that the search is carried out sympathetically and with discretion. We also offer advice on the possible consequences of a search and difficult changes that could arise. It is very important that the search is carried out with the individuals understanding that the answers they get may not turn out to be the ones they craved. We can also offer support and guidance at the time of the reunion and even accompany the individual if they wish.
It is also important to understand that searching for a birth parent can be very simple but in some cases very time consuming. We will try to give you an indication of the complexity of the case on our first meeting or discussion.
It is common for an individual to want to know and understand their roots and their past.
Children who are adopted often grow up without this knowledge which can leave the feeling that something is missing despite having a loving environment with their adopted parents.Top of page

The majority of our background requests are normally taken from our dedicated website www.ukbackgroundchecks.com
On a personal request, the reasons for considering a personal or private background check are many; often we are contacted by a concerned family member when someone in the family has started dating someone that they are concerned about.
Landlords may wish to vet prospective tenant for a history of trouble or non payment of debts.
We are also regularly contacted by clients by clients concerned that their spouse may be acting unfaithfully, whilst a background check might not be the most appropriate or normal practice for such a situation, a history of infidelity and lies told to a previous partner in relation to their history can be a cause for concern.
Our background checks delve into the individual’s personal identifying data, beginning with their name, address. You can be assured of an accurate and complete investigation of a subject’s history. You can be assured that our background check is one of the most comprehensive in the industry; we can frequently provide details relating to;

As professional Private Investigators we know what information is available and how to provide you with an accurate, detailed background check no matter where your subject resides or how well they thinks their past to be hidden. We also understand that you do not want to the subject to be aware of your concerns and of our investigation and you can be assured of our confidentiality and professionalism.
Many sites on the internet (mainly USA registered) offer ”Comprehensive background checks services” at very cheap rates, However these services are often nothing more than poor databases searches which are normally outdated and quite often inaccurate or as accurate as the day they were input onto that particular database.
As we are Private Detectives we are able to research information ourselves, and then verify it from different sources, so we can be 100% sure that the information we provide will be accurate. We understand that our clients are people with serious concerns who need to be able to trust the information they receive.
Quite simply our background checks are undertaken by professional private investigators here in the UK at our offices and overseas with our respected foreign affiliations.
Tell us about your main concerns and we will focus on the information that you need to know about most.
Our prices are worked out on a purely individual basis and vary from job to job, we will analyse what you require and what we have to work from and the area and country we will work the case may all affect the amount of hours and time we work on the Case.
