Four people have been arrested on suspicion of fraud at government contractor A4e, police have confirmed.
Two women, aged 28 and 49, and two men, aged 35 and 41, were arrested last month and bailed until mid-March.
A4e, which is based in Slough, Berkshire, has millions of pounds worth of government contracts for welfare-to-work schemes.
The company said the alleged fraud dated back to 2010 and was uncovered by its own internal investigations.
A4e said it was co-operating fully with the police.
Thames Valley Police visited the company's offices as part of the investigation on Friday.
On Monday, Margaret Hodge, Labour chairwoman of the Public Accounts Committee, called on the government to suspend its welfare-to-work contracts with A4e until the investigation was complete.
