Polygraph testing of domestic staff: should you let anyone into your home without a lie detector test?
The keys to your home are not just metal. They give unrestricted access to your private life, your finances, your children’s safety and confidential information.
Need an actual test rather than theory? Take the VerifEye online test — from 2,500 UAH (≈ €50), with no visit to the office, or calculate the cost of a polygraph test.
A private driver knows your routes and schedules.
A housekeeper or maid has access to every room and to the safe.
A security guard knows every weak spot in your security system.
There is only one question: are you 100% sure of these people? Today, comprehensive lie detector screening of domestic staff is not a sign of distrust but the standard of a modern security culture in Ukraine.
Why are references no longer enough?
Most Polygraph Lviv clients come to us after an “ideal” person with an impressive CV has let them down.
Remember:
References are often a mere formality or even forged.
A person’s past (debts, criminal connections) does not show at an interview.
Addictions (gambling, drugs) are carefully concealed.
Who do we test, and which risks do we eliminate?
1. Personal driver
This is the person you trust with your life — your own and your children’s.
A polygraph helps to reveal:
Drug use, gambling addiction
Use of your property for personal purposes, sabotage
The main risk: passing information about the owner’s movements to the authorities, installing covert surveillance devices, leaking information about amounts of cash to outsiders.
2. Housekeeper / maid
Has full access to your belongings and your private space.
Risks: petty thefts that are hard to notice; copying keys; photographing documents and valuables to “tip off” criminals; planting listening devices and working for law enforcement.
3. Security guard
A security guard knows the CCTV system and the alarm codes.
We check for:
Hidden connections with the criminal world.
Financial difficulties that could become a motive for conspiring with criminals.
Test a candidate or an employee
We tailor the questions to the position and your risks, and you get the result on the day of the test. The employee’s written consent is mandatory — we’ll help you draw it up.

Not sure what questions to ask? Staff screening plan — 990 UAH (≈ €20), credited towards the test.
EyeDetect — a revolution in screening VIP staff
In addition to the classic polygraph, we offer EyeDetect technology — a contactless lie detector that analyses the movement of the pupils.
No sensors on the body: no discomfort or stress.
Speed: the test takes up to 45 minutes, including the result.
Objectivity: the result is produced by a computer algorithm, which rules out the human factor. This is the ideal format for discreet screening of premium staff.
What will you learn from the test? (Sample questions)
We word the questions so that you get a clear “Yes” or “No” answer:
Have you passed information about your employer’s property to outsiders?
Have you taken money or belongings without permission from families you worked for before?
Are you concealing any instances of driving under the influence?
Do you have hidden debts to creditors or to criminals? And so on.
Why aren’t hidden cameras the answer?
A camera records a crime that has already been committed. A polygraph is prevention. It is much cheaper and safer not to let a risky person into your home than to investigate a theft or an assault afterwards.
