Promoting and enhancing the quality of impartial workplace investigations.™
When complaints of workplace misconduct occur, it is not uncommon for someone to raise ‘mental illness’ as a complicating factor. It may be an issue for the complainant, the respondent, or witnesses. This mental health issue may already be known when the complaint arises, may come up during an investigation, or may emerge as a result of the alleged misconduct. Investigators can take a responsible and measured approach to managing mental health issues during an investigation.
