From the Field to the Office: What Private Investigators Must Know About Workplace Investigations

Presented by Suhaib Ibrahim of Bernardi Human Resource Law LLP

While private investigations often focus on uncovering hard evidence about a subject of interest, workplace harassment investigations are about conflicts between people.

These investigations require a nuanced approach grounded in procedural fairness, trauma-informed practices, and weighing interview evidence to make findings even without documentary proof.

This informative webinar, led by one of Ontario’s leading workplace investigation firms, highlights the key differences between traditional private investigations and workplace harassment investigations. We’ll offer practical guidance for investigators to navigate the unique challenges of the workplace harassment context, including procedural fairness, mitigating bias, and assessing witness credibility.
