Sign up for Certificate in Conducting Workplace Investigations

Why Attend?

If a problem or complaint has been raised, a proper investigation can determine what happened - and what can be done about it. It can also help organizations avoid liability for employee wrongdoing, but only if fast and effective action happens to remedy the problem. Being able to carry out a thorough investigation is essential; while a defective investigation could add to liability issues and render any employee dismissals unfair. If carried out early and correctly, an investigation can contain problems and minimise distraction from the business. 

Benefits Of Attending

• Execute the necessary actions in preparation for interviews and fact-finding

• Collect, assess, and use the evidence 
• Write the report and conclude the investigation
