About this course
This short course shows how to conduct disciplinary investigations fairly, objectively and efficiently.
Workplace investigations can cover a wide variety of offences, from bad timekeeping and computer misuse to bullying and harassment, theft, violence or fraud. Investigators are responsible for looking into allegations of misconduct, gathering witness statements and other evidence. The investigator's report will then be used at any formal disciplinary hearing that follows. Combining dramatised scenarios with best-practice guidance and key legal advice, this short course provides a quick-reference step-by-step guide to conducting a disciplinary investigation in a fair, timely and objective way and producing a detailed report that supports the disciplinary process.
Good to know: A follow-up from the core course 'Disciplinary Matters'.
