This webinar examines the scope and nature of employee dishonesty and explains the risks to employers and organizations of all types. It goes on to deal with the practical aspects of prevention and response to victimization, as well as balancing the need to assure that corrective and deterrent programs and policies do not unduly interfere with normal operations and opportunities and do not generate other material problems. While information technology is not the focus of this program, the importance of technology both in creating risks and finding solutions, is carefully explored. Attention is given as well to those organizations in increasing numbers that have assets or information about outsiders, from advance deposits to credit card information and medical data. Because the risks in today’s world are not simply the loss of money or inventory, but the possibility of lawsuits and liabilities, rare is the organization that can safely presume its risks are affordably confined.
