Every HR professional will face a serious workplace incident at some stage in their career. Will you know exactly what to do when confronted with a harassment complaint, a theft allegation, or an OHS event?

Industrial tribunals have repeatedly criticised employers over botched investigations or their failure to investigate workplace incidents. A properly-conducted investigation could be the key to your organisation's success in averting or defending a prosecution or claim.

This online presentation, brought to you by HR Daily and Acumen Lawyers director Brad Petley, will help you understand:

•The role of the HR investigator;

•Your legal obligations during investigations;

•How to gather evidence and take statements from employees;

•How to conduct effective interviews;

•How to deal with evasive or untruthful witnesses;

•When not to conduct interviews;

•The impact of the Fair Work Act on investigation obligations;

•How to manage employees post-investigation; & more.

You'll be posted a CD containing the presentation and Q&A (in both Quicktime and Windows Media formats), and presenter's slides.
