Polygraph Exams

Precision Polygraph's diagnostic polygraph testing serves as an investigative tool designed to expedite the resolution of corporate and criminal investigations. These examinations typically address a single issue, which is why they are termed “diagnostic,” but they can also extend to events, dates, and times related to a particular matter.

The questioning in a diagnostic polygraph test is highly specific and directly pertains to the event under investigation, ensuring a more precise evaluation of truthfulness or deception. Our services cover four key areas: specific testing, pre-employment testing, continuous screening, and statement verification.

Specific Polygraph
Test

A Specific Polygraph Test is a focused examination used to assess truthfulness regarding a specific incident, such as workplace theft, fraud, or personal matters like infidelity. Applied when there’s a clearly defined event, it helps verify or rule out an individual’s involvement. In workplace investigations, it can narrow down suspects and provide corroboration by identifying inconsistencies or supporting statements. In personal situations, like infidelity, it helps confirm the truthfulness of claims about specific incidents. While not a replacement for a full investigation, it offers insights that may be otherwise unattainable, and its results can strengthen cases in disciplinary hearings or arbitrations.

Pre-Employment Polygraph Testing

Pre-Employment Polygraph Testing is a screening tool used by companies to assess the honesty and integrity of job candidates. It helps employers determine whether potential hires are truthful about their background, qualifications, and suitability for the position, aiming to prevent the hiring of individuals who may pose risks such as dishonesty, misconduct, or criminal behaviour.
This test typically evaluates aspects like criminal history, drug use, involvement in theft or fraud, falsification of information on résumés, and overall trustworthiness. Conducted with strict protocols to ensure fairness, the results help employers make informed decisions during the hiring process, particularly for roles that involve sensitive information or high levels of responsibility.

Screening (Continuous) Polygraph Testing

Screening (Continuous) Polygraph Testing is a regular assessment tool used by organisations to monitor employee integrity and adherence to company policies over time. Unlike one-time pre-employment tests, continuous polygraph screening is conducted periodically to ensure employees remain trustworthy throughout their employment. It is especially common in industries requiring high ethical standards, such as security, law enforcement, and financial services.

This testing assesses aspects like workplace theft, policy violations, drug or alcohol use, disclosure of sensitive information, and unreported criminal activity. It helps organisations identify potential issues early, maintain a culture of integrity, and reinforce accountability, ultimately deterring misconduct and ensuring employees meet ethical standards.

Statement Verification Polygraph Testing

Statement Verification Polygraph Testing is a specialised polygraph exam used to verify the truthfulness of an individual's statement or account. This test is particularly useful when a person's version of events is crucial to resolving investigations or disputes, helping authorities or organisations validate key information by assessing the accuracy and honesty of the individual’s statement.

Commonly used by police, law enforcement agencies, government bodies, and private contractors, this test examines aspects such as the truthfulness of specific claims, consistency with known facts, involvement in events, and knowledge of key details. By evaluating honesty and potential deception, Statement Verification Polygraph Testing serves as a reliable tool for clarifying facts and aiding in the resolution of legal matters and investigations.
