Name of Event: How to Conduct Workplace Investigations - Witnesses Interviews | Webinar

Details: Wherever there are employees, there are employee relations issues. Every company will inevitably encounter times when they must conduct an internal investigation.

Knowing how to conduct an internal investigation in regards to a complaint, an accident, or upon receipt of reports of misconduct or even in regards to a performance situation, is one of the most critical skills every manager and certainly, every HR professional needs in today’s workplace.

Even routine investigations can uncover unexpectedly ugly aspects of the people and/or even of the company so untrained investigators even operating under the best, most routine of circumstances may not do nearly enough to uncover the problem, be easily dissuaded from doing anything at all or not protect complainants and witnesses from being retaliated against. Learning on the job can be costly in a number of way to the employer, not just in attorney fees or judgments, but also in loss of employees, damage to morale, vicious gossip and damage of reputations and loss of productivity that can take years to repair.

A professional investigation helps an employer defend against legal liability and can send a message to employees that they work for an ethical company.

However, whether the investigation, from fact-finding to writing reports, defends the company and limits your legal liability or blows up into an incredible, embarrassing mess (that incurs even greater liability) may depend largely upon HOW the investigation is conducted.

This webinar will teach attendees best practices for conducting effective workplace investigations in regards to a complaint, an accident, or upon receipt of reports of misconduct or even in regards to a performance situation. It will cover how to take a complaint, the investigative process, tools and tips for conducting effective witness interviews and much more.
