Investigations Services

Workplace Investigations

All MRG investigations are conducted by a licensed investigator or Qualified Manager. Our team’s expertise stems from decades spent conducting thousands of investigations of workplace complaints of alleged misconduct, including harassment, discrimination, retaliation, and other matters for public and private sector employers. Select investigators are familiar with POBOR, FBOR, and other public sector employment concerns. 

MRG’s approach centers on confidential, timely, efficient investigations. Our team strives to conduct investigations with a minimum level of impact to the client organization’s operations. To ensure alignment with your leadership team, we work closely with clients to understand the client’s situation and define the investigation’s scope.  

We provide a comprehensive investigative report to clients within 30 days of the final interview or submission of evidence.

Investigations often reveal deeper conflict or friction in an organization. MRG can help your team identify and overcome those challenges through dedicated post-investigation consulting services. Our clients are matched with trusted consulting advisors with hands-on experience in workplace employment matters, from executive coaching and team training to culture assessments. MRG can help your organization and staff grow above challenges and prevent future misconduct allegations.

Navigate complex challenges with trusted, experienced experts on your side. The MRG Investigations Team conducts additional support pertaining to investigations. Our investigators have served as hearing officers for internal grievance procedures and as expert support on matters including the adequacy of investigations, public sector personnel practices, performance management, and the ADA interactive process. Finally, our team has provided expert witness testimony as certified experts concerning investigation outcomes and employee relations, among other matters.
