Investigation explained
The purpose of an investigation is to collect all the relevant information and evidence relating to an alleged misconduct. Making decisions on a workplace disciplinary or grievance without reasonably completing a fact-finding exercise may render any subsequent decisions or actions taken unfair or unlawful, which can expose the organisation to the risk of legal action.
