Workplace Violence Investigations

Workplace violence threats rarely materialize without warning. An employee who has made threatening statements, an individual who has been terminated under contentious circumstances, a domestic situation that has followed an employee to work, a stalker targeting someone in your organization — each represents a threat that requires investigation, documentation, and a response informed by real facts rather than speculation. Empire Investigation LLC provides workplace violence investigation services for Pittsburgh employers, law firms, and security teams.

Our workplace violence investigations assess the credibility of threats, document threatening behavior, investigate the background and history of the threat source, and provide findings that your security team, HR department, and legal counsel can use to make informed decisions about protective measures and legal response.

What This Investigation Covers

  • Physical altercations or assaults in the workplace
  • Credible threats made against employees or leadership
  • Stalking or harassment with a physical safety dimension
  • Domestic violence spillover into the work environment
  • Prior incident documentation and pattern identification

When This Service Is Needed

  • An employee has been assaulted or threatened in the workplace
  • HR or security has received credible reports of potential violence
  • Legal counsel needs documented facts prior to termination or law enforcement referral
  • A prior incident has created ongoing safety concerns that require monitoring

Our Approach

We conduct structured, confidential investigations using proven methodologies and professional-grade tools. Every case is scoped carefully, executed with discretion, and focused on delivering actionable, documented results. We coordinate directly with legal counsel and executive leadership when required.

Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

An employee made threatening statements and was terminated. Should we investigate?

Yes. Post-termination threat monitoring is a specific risk period. Empire Investigation can surveil the former employee's activities, research their background for indicators of escalation risk, and provide ongoing intelligence to your security team. We work with threat assessment professionals and security consultants to integrate our investigative findings into your response plan.

A domestic violence situation involving one of our employees may be coming to our workplace. What can we do?

Document the information you have, contact Empire Investigation for a rapid assessment, and implement your workplace violence response protocol. We can conduct background investigation on the threatening individual, surveil the employee at risk as a protective measure, and provide real-time intelligence to your security team.
