INVESTIGATION

Introduction

An organisation's decision to engage an experienced, qualified, independent and external investigator is an important one. No matter what type of investigation Warton Strategic undertakes for your organisation, these principles remain the same.


By engaging an investigator who is external to your organisation you can ensure that:

  • the complaint or incident is dealt with as soon as possible and without undue delay 
  • the principles of procedural fairness are adhered to from the outset 
  • your organisations' complaints or incident management policies and procedures are adhered to 
  • evidence is located and secured as soon as possible
  • disruption to the workforce is minimised.

As a Warton Strategic client, on completion of the investigation you will receive a comprehensive and professionally presented report which clearly articulates the issues, the methodology and the evidence. Your report will also include conclusions on which your organisation can make critical decisions.

Workplace Investigation

Warton Strategic offers workplace investigation services to Government, private enterprise and NGOs. Workplace investigations can be complex and must be handled in an impartial and sensitive manner.


We recognise that many organisations may not have their own in-house workplace investigators. By using an external investigator such as Warton Strategic, you can ensure a procedurally fair and completely impartial investigation.


Warton Strategic is a foundation member of the Australasian Association of Workplace Investigators (AAWI) and an active member of the Council of International Investigators (CII).

From the moment your organisation receives a complaint, Warton Strategic can ensure that an external, independent and procedurally fair investigation is undertaken in accordance with your organisation's relevant complaint handling procedures.


Warton Strategic will communicate with you throughout the process and will provide you with a comprehensive, evidence-based Investigation Report on which your organisation can make critical disciplinary, employment and other decisions.
