Learn how to conduct workplace investigations.


Allowing harassment to continue unchecked is never the right ethical decision, nor is it wise from a business perspective. Planning and carrying out an investigation can be daunting, but it's vitally important to your company's employees, culture, and reputation. The Essential Guide to Workplace Investigations provides step-by-step guidance that will help you come up with a game plan, gather evidence, question witnesses, and take action if necessary. If you hire an outside investigator, it will help you understand the investigator's work and findings.


This book will help any manager, supervisor, or Human Resources professional sort out workplace problems quickly and effectively. Use this affordable, step-by-step guide to investigate, document, and resolve every kind of workplace problem, from discrimination and harassment to employee theft, workplace violence, and substance abuse.


Written by a former employment lawyer, the Essential Guide to Workplace Investigations provides employers with the tools they need to conduct effective workplace investigations. Learn how to:



  • decide whether to investigate

  • choose an investigator

  • conduct interviews and gather evidence

  • evaluate the evidence

  • document the investigation, and

  • take action and follow up.


This thorough guide provides the forms, sample policies, checklists, and sample documentation that employers need to conduct a successful investigation that will stand up in court. In addition, this book addresses remote work and how to use virtual communication tools to conduct investigations. This edition also incorporates the latest legal developments in employment law, including updated 50-state charts on common workplace issues, Supreme Court decisions on discrimination and harassment, and more. Plus, you can download forms online.
