Workplace Investigations

No matter how water-tight your recruitment, HR training and policies are; workplace incidents can still arise that require investigation.

And, when it comes to conducting those investigations, you’ll want to ensure a professional, robust and unbiased process.

For this reason, many employers choose to instruct an independent third-party investigator to handle things for them. This way, any prejudice is removed, and you’ll have peace of mind that the investigation is being conducted by dedicated professionals.

At Frettens, our specialist Workplace Investigation Team, who hold dual qualifications and professional training in people management and investigative practice, prioritise honesty and attention to detail. Our professionals won’t tell you what you want to hear, we’ll tell you how it is. We’ll give you all the facts you need to know in order to make a sensible, informed decision.

With the level of clarity we provide, we aim to instil a sense of confidence in any decision you make, and greatly reduce the chances of having to defend a claim at the Employment Tribunal.
