Detecting & Avoiding Frauds
23rd Nov 2009,The Legend Hotel,Kuala Lumpur
Dear friend,
In the wake of this global credit crisis, many companies in Malaysia had felt the credit and liquidity crunches, which affected their survival. As though these are not enough to bother them, these companies are also experiencing losses in sales and reduction in profits. What then causes these losses and reductions? Is it really affected by this financial crisis?
But, with companies going bust and workers being retrenched, the magnitude of these problems is exemplified by frauds within and outside the companies. It is then necessary at this time to detect these frauds caused by your employees and your customers as well as those by other swindlers, either local or foreign. Companies must then introduce and implement stringent controls to thwart frauds at its infancy stage. Often, with frauds found, these companies over-react and, besides failing to quickly detect the frauds, hastily fire the employees that compounded further the problem in hands. Thus, it is inevitable for the companies to know the Malaysian laws that govern the rights of their employees, even if there are the fraudsters, themselves.
What is this workshop all about?
This workshop is designed to enable you to detect the many common frauds committed by your employees, suppliers, customers as well as those done by foreigners and at the same time you will able to apply some ways and controls to mitigate these frauds and use the laws to your advantages to seek redresses.
