Workplace Investigations

Misconducts, conflicts, and disputes are a common phenomenon among employees in the workplace.  Harassment, bullying, fraud, policy violation, and discrimination are just but some of the many forms of misconduct commonly reported among staff members within an organisation and these pose major challenges in building a conducive work environment and establishing productive worker relationships.

Workplace conflicts and misconducts can be on an individual level or group based. They are always problematic and have the potential to build up worker hostility. This negatively affects the staffs’ motivation to work, thereby resulting in high rates of worker absenteeism which translates into escalated workplace conflicts and unwarranted expenses to the company.

Most employers have little to no skill and experience at all in conducting investigations on workplace-related issues. Not to mention the amount of time it will take them to comprehensively look into and handle every issue that arises amidst their busy schedules. There is also a high likelihood of bias towards one of the affected parties if these investigations are done by in-house workplace managers.

The need to subcontract these workplace investigations to a neutral third party with the relevant skills and expertise is a viable option that corporate managers should make a provision for in their organisations.

Outsourced workplace investigators carry out autonomous and unbiased probes into filed complaints and grievances regarding harassment, fraud, bullying, discrimination, and any form of unethical behaviour in the workplace and come up with reliable facts. They compile comprehensive reports workplace policy violations and offer viable recommendations on office conflict resolution.

Partnering with an independent, skilled, and highly experienced workplace investigator will help you as a corporate achieve milestones in probing and resolving complaints with a high level of transparency, offer equality to all involved parties, ascertain that all predefined laws and regulations are adhered to during the process.

In addition, this will help you as the employer stay focused on the organisation’s core competency, eliminate unnecessary worker interruptions, and prevent any unwarranted negative turn of events resulting from invalid investigations.
