Workplace investigations can be essential to protect your organization in the event of a complaint or incident, but how they are conducted can impact your company’s liability and produce evidence for plaintiffs if not done correctly.

Join us to learn how to protect yourself and mitigate risks to your organization if a complaint or incident prompts an investigation.

This webinar will cover: 

• Maintaining confidentiality
• Selecting the investigator
• Creating a plan for the investigation
• Crafting interview questions
• Balancing employer and employee rights
• Preserving attorney-client privilege
• Ensuring procedural fairness
• Handling employee resignation
• Drafting and determining content for written reports
• Administering voluntary disclosures

We’ll also answer:

• Can an investigation report be discoverable?
• How does an investigation factor into whether something needs to be reported to the government?
• What if some of the witnesses are no longer with the company?

Discover how to evaluate varying allegations and anticipate how they will play out under state and federal law in this webinar presented by our Labor & Employment and White-Collar Criminal Defense & Regulatory Compliance practice groups.

The first event in our series, originally called Workplace Wakeup, covered privacy issues for employers, our second event covered what is on the EEOC’s Radar in 2024 and our third event covered noncompetes.
