Polygraph Testing

A referral for a polygraph test is typically made when there is a need to resolve a factual dispute that cannot be clarified by other means. In organizations, this sometimes involves suspicions of embezzlement, information theft, breach of trust, or an unusual event requiring a reliability check. In the legal and private sectors, polygraph tests are used in personal disputes, divorce proceedings, or as part of agreements between parties seeking to efficiently resolve a factual dispute.

The test results are presented in a structured report that includes the professional opinion of the examiner. The findings can serve as a basis for informed management decisions within an organization, such as continuing employment or taking disciplinary action. In cases where parties have agreed in advance, the test can also serve as a supporting tool within legal proceedings, arbitration, or mediation.

Companies and organizations seeking to examine suspicions of breach of trust or unusual events, attorneys handling civil or personal disputes, and private individuals interested in resolving a factual dispute under a mutual agreement between parties.
