TRAINING IN CRIME PREVENTION STRATEGIES AND TECHNIQUES IN THE COMPANY

Abstract

The purpose of this Community Service is to increase the understanding, awareness, and practical skills of participants, especially at the managerial level, in recognizing, preventing, and investigating various forms of fraud that often occur in companies, both in the state-owned and private sectors. This training not only emphasizes understanding of basic concepts, but also the ability to identify modes, motives, and areas prone to fraud in the fields of human resources, finance, procurement, logistics, maintenance, and other important functions. The methods used include theory-based interactive training, group discussions, case study analysis, and fraud investigation simulations. This approach provides a comprehensive understanding of the typology of fraud, including asset misappropriation, fraudulent statements and window dressing, as well as corruption (bribery, gratuities, and other corrupt practices). Participants are also equipped with the skills to recognize fraudulent behavior at various levels of the organization, from operators to executives. The results of the activity show an increase in critical awareness of fraud risks and the importance of prevention from an early age. Participants gain the ability to detect fraud patterns as well as investigative strategies when cases occur. Thus, the program supports integrity, transparency, and sustainable corporate governance.
