Workplace Investigations: Writing Solid, Objective, Professional and Effective Investigative Reports.
OVERVIEW
There is a multitude
of laws and situations that require employers perform internal investigations
to uncover facts and demonstrate they’ve met compliance obligations. A good HR investigation report factually represents all facets of such an investigation
and shows an employer took appropriate investigatory steps and made good
decisions based on the information they discovered.
Investigative report
writing’s purpose is to report investigatory findings to its reader. Without a
good investigatory report, it may be difficult to show a quality investigation
took place even if it did! Even worse, from a bad report, poor decisions can be
made based on its faulty representation of information.
WHY
SHOULD YOU ATTEND
Anyone who performs
workplace investigations needs to be able to write their findings in a report
such that it becomes a written presentation of the information discovered in
their investigation.
It’s imperative the
report that is used to document and communicate information to its readers be
of as high a quality as the investigation itself. Because without a high
quality investigatory report it can be hard to demonstrate the employer was
taking appropriate investigatory steps or made factual decisions, even if in
fact they did!

LEARNING
OBJECTIVES
Learn how to write a
factual, solid, representative report of an internal investigation that will
withstand scrutiny and provide appropriate information to decision
makers.
Since reports are
often read by adversaries as well as not only internally within the
organization, it’s important that reports as an overview of the investigation
show a logical factual representation of actions and decisions. Good
investigative report writing aims at informing the reader to not only
justify the employer’s decision making, but also demonstrating they did what a
responsible employer acting in good faith would do, and if founded, took steps
to rectify applicable conduct.
