As a small business owner, I recently discovered that one of my employees has been embezzling funds from the company. Can you help me find a way to confront this person without alerting law enforcement?

Yes, unfortunately embezzlement is a common issue for small business owners. It can be very difficult to confront an employee about the allegations without them knowing which direction you are planning on taking it. It is best to gather as much evidence as possible before addressing the employee so that you have proof of their misconduct. Additionally, a trusted third party such as a lawyer should be consulted before any decisions are made and definitely before facing the employee.

Yes, absolutely. It is important to confront this person in a manner that is respectful and minimizes any potential legal repercussions. I would recommend setting up a private meeting with the employee, during which you should be honest with them about your concerns and provide evidence of the suspected embezzlement. Then offer them the opportunity to explain their actions before deciding on a course of action.
