Subunternehmer-Betrugserkennung durch fehlende Stundendokumentation (Schwarzarbeit-Risiko)
Definition
Mobile survey crews report hours via email/spreadsheet. No GPS timestamp, no geofencing, no real-time validation. Fraud risks: (1) Subcontractor bills 40 hours but works 25 (padding), (2) Crew deployed to multiple job sites same day (double-billing), (3) Unreported labor (Schwarzarbeit) creates principal liability under SchwAV. Audit penalties: €5,000–€20,000 per case; fraud recovery = invoiced amount + interest.
Key Findings
- Financial Impact: €5,000–€20,000 labor audit fine; €10,000–€50,000 fraudulent invoice recovery; €3,000–€10,000 remediation/documentation cost.
- Frequency: Ad-hoc discovery during tax/labor audit (Betriebsprüfung); 1–2 cases per 50–100 subcontractors/year sector-wide.
- Root Cause: Manual time entry; no GPS/timestamp verification; no geofencing; no real-time field tracking; decentralized documentation.
