Workplace Investigation

Workplace Investigation

Formal grievances and allegations of inappropriate behaviour are an increasing issue in the context of workplaces throughout Australia. This current trend has lead to the engagement of Workplace Investigation Services to seek resolution.  A grievance arises when a person lodges a formal statement of complaint to supervisory staff informing of a conflict or inappropriate behaviour in the workplace. These issues are then investigated by an internal or external party to find a resolution.

Some common issues could include:

  • harassment
  • discrimination
  • ethical violation
  • corruption
  • dishonesty, etc

Formal grievances at the best of times are difficult and complex issues that need to be addressed by a professional. Managers are most commonly the initial avenue employees choose to seek redress. However managerial or supervisory staff may not always be the appropriate avenue as they may have subjective feeling towards parties from day to day interaction. An external workplace investigations service fills this void by providing an objective and unbiased investigation that makes conclusions with the given information rather than feelings.
