This webinar will explore the factors Canadian adjudicators examine in determining whether a workplace investigation is covered by legal privilege and when an employer may want to assert or waive any potential privilege claim. Using real life examples, participants will also come away with an understanding of some of the procedural steps they must adhere to if they wish to have a workplace investigation withstand scrutiny by Canadian adjudicators.
This webinar will provide an overview of the eight draft Ethical Guidelines, highlight the reasons why the guidelines were developed and explain how they will sit with other professional ethical obligations and the forthcoming AAWI Best Practice Standards.
Many companies employ workplace investigators. Those investigators face questions different from external investigators because of their role and relationships within the company.
We will discuss issues such as ethical responsibilities, investigating high profile cases, lack of cooperation, privilege and confidentiality, disappearing evidence, professionalism, report organization, executive summaries, drawing conclusions and more.
