Our presenters will address how bias functions, how to make reliable credibility determinations, and how to leverage methods of direct elicitation to the benefit of fact-finding. Participants will walk away with the tools necessary to sift through contesting testimony to arrive at the best possible reconstruction of what took place—and how to respond.

- Short Description:
- Recently, tribunals have placed some reliance upon a High Court decision that establishes that where a disciplinary process takes too long that, in itself, may be regarded as a penalty, justifying reduction, or even elimination, of sanctions. Could this apply to us as investigators? And what duties might we owe as a consequence?

- Short Description:
- The New Zealand Royal Commission of Inquiry into Abuse in Care has the largest scope of any similar international inquiry. The Inquiry is considering a range of faith based and state institution settings and a range of themes over a 50 year time period, including the experience of the disabled, Pacific Islanders and Māori in care. Estimates are that 250,000 children may have been abused in care in this time period. Now mid-way through the life of the Inquiry, there have been many lessons learned as to how to scope and conduct an historical investigation in an inclusive, trauma informed manner and the resources that are likely to be required.

- The broadening appreciation of obligations to indigenous and Te Tiriti o Waitangi (the Treaty of Waitangi), together with the significant participation of Māori in and across all sectors, mean inevitably, that Pākeha (non-Māori) investigators, who are engaged by Māori and/or work with Māori, will need to develop an understanding of Te Ao Māori (the world view from Māori). This session will focus on what investigators should be aware of when working with Māori, and how investigations involving Māori may be conducted appropriately.

- Forensic technology has been a tremendous boon in terms of the identification and analysis of digital evidence in workplace investigations. It is becoming increasingly important that the workplace investigator really understands what is happening and where digital evidence might lie. Those experienced investigators that truly understand and apply forensic technology analysis remain unicorns. That rare and almost mythical beast that often starts where others stop and know when to question what seems obvious at a glance.

- The intersection between the criminal law, employment law and workplace investigations will be explored with a panel comprising an investigator, employment lawyer and criminal barrister. Workplace investigators may be required to consideration evidence that may be admissible in future criminal proceedings. The most common incidents of workplace criminal behaviour relate to fraud, theft, sexual harassment, and sexual assault. Is it a criminal issue? Is employment law advice needed? Do I call the investigator? Maybe it is a combination with crossover and timing concerns.

- This webinar focuses on the impact of COVID-19 on workplace investigations. Our panel of workplace investigators and in-house counsel will consider new practices that have been adopted by workplace investigators to assist the investigation process. Which of these practices should remain post the pandemic and why? Were there any practices that developed that should now be ditched? We will also consider how these adapted investigation practices were viewed by those who instruct workplace investigators. What was the experience of inhouse counsel with the investigation process during the pandemic? Did these new practices align with our client’s expectations? Were there any difficulties and how were they overcome? Our speakers will share and discuss investigation practices that were adapted or implemented during 2020 and consider whether any of these practices might continue as we emerge from the pandemic.
