Introduction to Workplace Investigations

Description

The course offers crucial insights into the legal priorities of workplace investigations, employee rights, and fostering a culture of respect and trust, which are essential for maintaining a healthy and lawful work environment. This course will help Business Owners, HR, and managers to conduct a proper workplace investigation when necessary. This is important because the investigation itself (or the actions taken resulting from the investigation) could become grounds for a discrimination, harassment, or retaliation claim if it is not handled with proper diligence and care.

Learning Objectives Covered During This Session

1. Review why legal considerations must be a priority,
2. Review employee rights as well as the general concept of respect and trust,
3. Review common employee complaints that may warrant an investigation, and
4. Understand how to help mitigate the legal risk through swift action and documentation.

This course is 49 minutes.
