EMFIG Welcomes Kim DeLuca!

Having passion for your job is a great gift.

Done well, workplace investigations provide a valuable contribution to productive, effective work environments. Investigations are also labor intensive – and demand an elusive balance of aural (listening), oral, and written communication skills along with HR/employment law knowledge, and emotional intelligence, too. Many are tasked with executing this important function, but it is not for everyone. Employment Matters LLC Flynn Investigations Group (EMFIG) is grateful to celebrate Kim DeLuca as the latest addition to its team of highly experienced workplace and school investigators.

Kim has a diverse legal background having worked in a big law firm environment, in-house for a large corporation, and most recently as an investigator and manager of workplace investigation services for one of the largest and most respected employer associations in the country. Since focusing exclusively on workplace investigations, Kim has distinguished herself among fellow investigators and employers as a standout in the profession. In addition to possessing that rare combination of skills and a veteran’s perspective, Kim enjoys passion for her work. It all makes Kim DeLuca a perfect fit for EMFIG.
