Conducting investigations - two 3hr sessions over two consecutive days


How to conduct a fair internal investigation, from gathering the evidence to presenting the findings

Should an employer not carry out a reasonable investigation, any decisions they make in the disciplinary or grievance process are likely to be unfair and could result in an employment tribunal claim.

This event will provide you with key techniques, procedures and checklists to help ensure that you are considering all the crucial facts and that you undertake the process in a fair and unbiased manner. You will also gain valuable understanding of what the law requires and learn key investigation skills, such as interviewing and report writing.
