Conducting Effective Investigations:

An employee complains about a co-worker, supervisor, subordinate, or other person they encounter as part of their work. Now what? Whether and how the employer reacts can be as critical as the circumstances of the underlying complaint. Should you conduct an internal investigation, hire a consultant, or engage your legal counsel?

We’ll discuss what to do and what to avoid to help ensure that your workplace is legally compliant, practically effective, and able to constructively address the concerns raised, minimize legal liability, and move forward in a productive and respectful manner.
