INVESTIGATIVE INTERVIEWS
Specialized Investigation Interviews
As an employer, you need a solid basis for taking action and defending
yourself against claims of inaction and unfair treatment. The objective of
a workplace investigation is to procure reliable facts so you can make an
informed decision.
We investigate misconduct such as workplace substance abuse, fraud,
sexual harassment, theft and/or criminal activities to determine the true
nature and scope of the problem, should one be present. We tie all the
various facts and documents together and show what it all represents.
Interview Objectives:
Report upon any forms of related employee misconduct, or crimes
against the employees and the organization.
Gather all information concerning the alleged or suspected problem in a
way that allows management to enforce its policies and carry out
appropriate corrective action. Perform the fact-finding process without
being disruptive to the company, its operations, or employee morale.
Structure the process to reduce liability, improve morale and increase
profits.
After the information-gathering and fact-finding phase of the workplace
investigation, we perform bilingual, Spanish/English interviews of
selected individuals. These individuals should have firsthand knowledge
about alleged misconduct.
Through the skillful application of interview techniques, our
professionals have an unprecedented success rate in obtaining
admissions without coercion, threats, or promises of leniency.
In most circumstances we obtain written, verbal, and tape-recorded
statements from those interviewed. All information is cross-referenced
with the information developed from other employee interviews,
verifying and confirming results where possible. This method provides a
complete picture of the employees and others involved so employers
receive a complete, comprehensive workplace investigation.
The lengths of the interviews are determined by the level of cooperation
of the employee and volume of pertinent information provided by those
interviewed.
We make no recommendations regarding discipline. However, the
results of the investigation and subsequent interviews are provided in a
detailed summary and a final report in order to assist you and your
counsel with your decision-making process
