Learning Objective

  • Discover workplace issues and manage expectations effectively during investigations.
  • Prepare and anticipate challenges to succeed in investigative interviews.
  • Engage proactively with managers during investigations for better outcomes.
  • Handle active manager involvement appropriately in investigation processes.
  • Master investigative techniques to uncover workplace problems and solutions.

Course Overview

Every now and then, an employer needs to investigate concerns about an employee’s workplace behavior—whether through a formal inquiry or a more casual approach. While having a hotline or other reporting channels for employees to voice their issues is a great start, it's merely one side of the coin.

This CPE course will explore and investigate the allegation where the rubber meets the road.   A proper investigation gives management needed information and a factual basis for making its decisions.  It also reinforces the fairness of the employee discipline process and your commitment to learning about employee concerns.

Investigations may vary in scope and objectives, but the ultimate goal is uncovering the pertinent facts. While each situation may require a different approach, following established best practices ensures a fair, transparent, and consistent process.

This online webinar by Meric Bloc covers the following key topics:

  • Identifying Workplace Issues Proactively
  • Interview Preparation and Strategies
  • Managing Employee Expectations Effectively
  • Navigating Managerial Involvement Concerns

Join this CPE Course, it pinpoints investigators' common hurdles and offers strategies to tackle them head-on. To sweeten the deal, participants will walk away with an infographic titled “Rules for Investigators,” packed with practical insights to guide their investigative efforts.
