Program Description
Workplace investigations are an essential part of responding to allegations of harassment, discrimination, and other workplace misconduct. Understanding the legal obligations and principles governing investigations is critical for employers, unions, HR professionals, and others involved in the process.
In this virtual skills training workshop, experienced workplace investigation professionals will explore the key principles and practical considerations involved in navigating workplace investigations, from responding to an initial complaint to reviewing investigation findings and determining next steps. Participants will examine the legal obligations and best practices that support fair, thorough, and procedurally sound investigations, including key considerations when gathering evidence, conducting interviews, assessing credibility, and preparing or interpreting investigation reports. The workshop will also explore how investigation findings can inform decision-making and appropriate next steps.
