If you are asking these questions;
-
How do I get evidence?

How do I get proof?
-
How do I know what's happening?
-
How do I get a witness?

How do I get independent evidence?

How do I stop this problem?
You are in the right place!
Many organisations face situations where they suspect a problem exists but lack the evidence required to take action.
Without evidence, enforcement becomes difficult, disciplinary action becomes risky, and decision-making becomes uncertain.
