This session discusses the key factors that are used to assess credibility and the challenges that arise during video interviews when making credibility determinations. This session will also highlight key things investigators must do to effectively conduct a video interview.
During the course of this webinar, we will explore some classic cases for using social media to enhance workplace investigations – both large and small and discuss the ethics and limitations around this approach.
By the end of this webinar, participants will: learn the new risk drivers for virtual and remote workplace wrongdoing, explore the extension of the “workplace” and employers’ harassment and violence protection obligations to their employees, and understand what types of investigations they will be called upon to do under the “new normal.”
Internal and external investigators have different challenges. This program will discuss some of these challenges, including the weaknesses both types of investigators---as expert witnesses---might highlight in the other’s investigations and how to anticipate and avoid those arguments.
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.
This webinar will focus on the dilemma every investigator faces from time to time: hitting what seems like a dead end. The presenters will share creative ways to persist in moving forward in an investigation that hits the proverbial wall. Learn new ways to get past common obstacles while staying true to AWI Guiding Principles.
Internal workplace harassment investigations are commonly conducted by a company representative, such as from within the Human Resources department or other competent investigators. A different approach includes having a union representative co-investigate the complaint, which can often alleviate difficult conversations and a grievance about the findings after the fact.
This webinar will expand on the key issues and considerations for investigations at a historically gender- dominated workplace. Examples and a case study will be used to focus on key concepts.
