Safeguarding Investigations and Review

Investigations and Reviews

Our independent reviews and investigations ensure transparency and fairness for all parties involved. Our team consists of qualified investigators who uphold ethical standards and apply a proven methodology to each case.

• With extensive experience in securing evidence for both civil and criminal matters, we understand the thresholds for statutory agency involvement. This provides reassurance that no evidence will be compromised throughout the process.

• We don’t just complete an investigation and walk away. We stand by our methodology and are fully prepared to defend it in any tribunal should disciplinary processes follow.

• Additionally, we conduct post-event reviews within agreed terms of reference, identifying good practices and areas for further development to help your organisation continuously improve.

Our team is accustomed to working with key stakeholders such as local authorities, regulatory bodies, union representatives, complainants, and victims, always ensuring we manage these situations in a trauma-informed way.

Dealing with these circumstances can be time-consuming, challenging, and often unpleasant. Managing them alone can feel overwhelming. If left unaddressed, issues like employee absences, misconduct, or bullying allegations can harm your company’s reputation.

While employees have rights, it’s important to remember that your company does too. With our expert HR specialists on your side, even the most complex situations can be managed fairly, professionally, and in a way that protects your business.

Minimising Risk

• Preventing disciplinary and grievance issues is far more effective than addressing them once they arise.

• Comprehensive employment contracts and employee handbooks can help prevent issues from escalating, putting your company in a stronger position if problems do occur.

• Our experienced HR specialists can conduct a thorough audit of your documentation and procedures to ensure your disciplinary and grievance processes are effective, serving both your employees and your company’s best interests.
