Workplace/HR
Internal Investigations
Workplace/HR Internal Investigations Employee problems come in all shapes and sizes such as complaints of sexual harassment, employee theft, workplace accidents, and employee sabotage.

Our investigators are experienced in conducting internal investigations, keeping in mind the employee contract and employee rights. A fair and comprehensive investigation will be conducted with proper documentation.
Because workplace disputes often have personal importance to the employees involved, their individual perceptions can be shaded; especially when disputes may impact their livelihood.
