Employee misconduct and related assessments and investigations are a critical component of HR responsibilities, but unstructured, unfocused investigations create many challenges, from high costs and lengthy timelines to negative impacts on organizational culture. In this session, you’ll learn how to refine your approach to assessing, conducting, and occasionally contracting out these sensitive matters efficiently, legally, and with minimal impact on workplace morale. You’ll learn to understand the intake, size-up, and hand-off; investigation vs inquisition; managing impacts on culture and trust; and navigating legal and strategic frameworks. Through an expert-led interactive discussion, with real-life case studies, this session will show how you can transform the necessary evil of employee investigations into an opportunity for reinforcing organizational values and integrity.
