It may be a case for theft in the workplace, bullying, harassment or a discipline issue. Whatever the issue the key to a good investigation is that it be carried out in an independent, unbiased way and in compliance with relevant legislation. The investigators should be impartial and focused on the gathering of all relevant facts\/documents surrounding the issue. They should be diplomatic and sensitive when dealing with members of the workforce and strive to minimise any negative impact an investigation may have. A good investigation should also identify any procedural or policy weaknesses thereby enhancing the ability of the organisation to be successful going forward.<\/span><\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
