QUESTION

REPORTER (complainant / whistle-blower)

WITNESS (informant)

IMPLICATED (employee under investigation)

Are there laws, statutes, regulations, or case-law that govern or impact workplace investigative interviews?

No dedicated interview statute.

Internal interviews are permitted under the employer's right to give binding instructions in an employment contract (§ 1173a et seqq. ABGB) and the employee's duty of loyalty.

Same legal basis: duty to co-operate with lawful instructions (§ 1173a et seqq.ABGB).

Same legal basis, plus personality-rights protection (§ 1173a Art 27 ABGB).

If NO, what labour statutes regulate related topics?
