Workplace investigations

The weakest link in most organisation’s discipline or grievance procedure is the investigation. The fundamental purpose of an investigation is to collect the facts. It’s no more than that. But while a really rigorous investigation is essential to a wellconducted process, many managers simply skate over the surface and either do not collect the relevant data or fail to take a sufficiently robust approach to data collection. An inadequate investigation can cast the final outcome into doubt. This workshop will help delegates understand and apply investigation techniques and increase the depth and quality of your organisation’s investigation process. One day. Covers:

  • role of investigations in the dispute resolution process
  • ACAS Code of Practice
  • carrying out an investigation
  • interviewing witnesses
  • carrying out a disciplinary or grievance hearing

Testimonials

Kate Russell has helped us with training on Workplace Investigations and Return to Work Interviews. Kate was diligent in checking our needs before the training was delivered, and in checking our needs had been met after. The training itself was an engaging mix of expert knowledge and practical exercises, with plenty of group discussion. Kate was enthusiastic about the subject matter, and her extensive knowledge and experience was both interesting and hugely useful to the group. Feedback from our managers is that they have been able to apply the training directly in the workplace and it has greatly increased their confidence and skill in dealing with unplanned absence. Excellent training, and the in-house deliver made it very cost-effective.
