Daniel can assist organisations in relation to investigation of workplace complaints and grievances, frequently considered by HR and IR professionals as one of the more complex and time-consuming tasks associated with employee relations. Some of the ways that Sleeman Consulting, Mediation and Legal can assist, includes:

• Triage – assisting clients to work through the options and provide advice about whether a workplace investigation is required or advisable
• Facilitating or overseeing an investigation process
• Conducting an investigation process
• Training the team on investigation processes
• Working with the business to develop grievance and workplace investigation policies

Questions of legal professional privilege frequently arise in connection with investigation processes. Other questions often relate to whether the respondent in an investigation process is entitled to see the full investigation report.

If your organisation is considering an investigation process and these and other questions may be unclear, Daniel may be able to assist.
