Occupational Crime: Deterrence, Investigation, and Reporting in Compliance with Federal Guidelines

The federal government has issued guidelines that must be incorporated into any program for criminal deterrence in the workplace. If these guidelines are not met, corporations themselves may be legally accountable for the misdeeds of their employees. This book helps readers meet and exceed federal guidelines, whether they are starting from scratch or they wish to benchmark an existing program against another framework. Written by a 25-year veteran of corporate internal security and a certified fraud examiner, Occupational Crime integrates the legal, practical, and philosophical aspects of planning for, producing, and operating a successful compliance program to prevent and/or detect crime in the workplace. This step-by-step guide takes the reader from legal mandates and program design, to implementation and maintenance.
