TRUSTEE

Periodic evaluation of employee integrity

TRSUTEE, of our leading products, enables the periodic evaluation of employee integrity and loyalty throughout the employment lifecycle.

Map integrity and risk amongst existing employees

Trustworthy employees are essential to every business. They contribute to the profitability, service and reputation of an organization.

According to most estimates, at least a third of employees are involved in counterproductive work behaviors, which often go undetected. Counterproductive work behaviors are influenced not only by an employee’s integrity and values, but also by situational factors at work, such as satisfaction, norms and security controls. What’s more, these factors may evolve throughout the employee’s employment period, due to a range of possible changes in his or her job (e.g., position, supervisor) the organization (e.g., mergers, restructuring) or personal life (e.g., debts, addictions). Therefore, assessing employees’ risks of counterproductive behaviors should be carried out periodically, taking into consideration that the level of risk may not stay constant. Furthermore, these assessments can point out weak links and problematic norms on a company level or department level that can be later influenced through corrective actions.

  • Periodic employee evaluations

The TRUSTEE has been validated and revised over the past 20 years, making it a highly effective and accurate tool for occupational integrity testing.

  • Companies auditing and assessing their current employees through the TRUSTEE, report the tool to be very powerful as a unique indicator for identifying rotten apples within the company – whether individuals or groups and business units – so they know better where to focus their audits and controls in mitigating the human factor risk.
  • 92% of examinees report the TRUSTEE to be clear, non-invasive, non-discriminatory and relevant to their job. They also share their positive impression of companies that care about work ethics, along with their desire to work with said companies.
