Description: Employers conduct investigations for a variety of reasons; employee complaints, background checks, allegations of misconduct, losses of various types. The shared primary purpose of these investigations is the same - to find out the facts of a situation to determine a course of action to take - or not to take. In training classes, most exercises use scenarios of factual, logical, organized and cooperative employees. Therefore, in theory, investigating seems easy but in reality, more often than not it is not and can turn into real chaos quite quickly. www.onlinecompliancepanel.com | 510-857-5896 | customersupport@onlinecompliancepanel.com
