Employee Investigations
It is generally advisable for an employer to ensure that a different member of staff or management conducts each stage of the investigation, hearing and appeal of any disciplinary matter or grievance. However, not all businesses have the resources to do this.
Perhaps the employee involved in the proceedings has complained about the senior managers, or the matter is highly sensitive, or the organisation is very small and there is no-one available internally to carry out the investigation.
In such circumstances, Bolt Burdon can offer an Independent Disciplinary and/or Grievance Investigation and Adjudication Service, designed to reassure and gain the confidence of all parties that a balanced and objective approach is taken when handling these matters and to ensure that an employer is not left facing allegations that a fair procedure was not followed.
Our team prides itself on the personal skills and sensitivity of our solicitors and we bring the benefit of many years of professional experience advising on such matters.
