What Kind Of Workplace Process Does Your Company Need?

The Workplace Investigation team at KSW offer third party neutral investigation services, however a workplace investigation may not be what your company needs. Sometimes an informal process may be enough, or perhaps a formal internal investigation.

Here are a few factors to consider when assessing what process might be best for your company:

1. The power dynamic between the Complainant and Respondent

If the Complainant reports to the Respondent, or generally has less power in the company because of role, length of service, or age, then do not consider an informal process. The power imbalance cannot be managed successfully in such cases, and a workplace investigator should be used that can assess whether or not there has been an abuse of authority.
