SOME FACTS ABOUT THE POLYGRAPH
- A polygraph instrument measures
changes in the cardiovascular system (heart), the respiratory system
(breathing) and sweat gland/ electro-dermal activity (skin), when the
examinee is confronted with specific questions concerning a crime or
incident under investigation.
- The accuracy of a polygraph
examination varies between 85% and 95%.
- A polygraph test usually takes
about 1 to 1½ hours.

to be tested and he/ she must co-operate fully to ensure that reliable,
accurate and useful results are obtained.

the Constitution of the RSA, Act 108 of 1996 and the Labour Relations

and carrying probative value.

written report at the conclusion of each polygraph test.
