Independent Workplace Investigations
Independent investigations by WorkPlacePLUS ensure the proper handling of complex workplace claims such as bullying, harassment, grievances, misconduct and non-performance of legislation and/or policies. Our experienced HR consultants are trained investigators who go above and beyond the final report by supporting your organisation towards continuous improvement.
Workplace misconduct is a critical issue in Australian workplaces.
How do you address serious workplace incidents or allegations? For example:
-
Bullying
-
Harassment including sexual harassment
-
Violence, aggression or offensive behaviour
-
Discrimination
-
Victimisation
-
Unfair dismissal
-
Breach of contract, award or agreement
-
Breach of policy
-
Data breach or breach of privacy and confidentiality
-
Wage theft or underpayment
-
Serious client or stakeholder complaints
It’s crucial to support your employees by responding promptly and appropriately to serious workplace incidents or allegations. This means not only conducting a fair and confidential workplace investigation but also following a communication plan to discuss the matter with the parties involved and providing a timeframe for any decisions or actions.
When an impartial and thorough workplace investigation is required, engaging an experienced independent workplace investigator is considered best practice.
Internal workplace investigations are prone to accusations of lack procedural fairness, transparency or perceived conflict of interest.
