    John Bagyi from Bond, Schoeneck & King PLLC presents "Workplace Investigations".

    In today’s workplace, investigations into workplace harassment, theft and other forms of employee misconduct are commonplace.  Handled correctly, a workplace investigation can limit or even eliminate an employer’s legal liability.  Yet, all too often, workplace investigations are inadequate or ineffective.

     

    This presentation will provide a crash course in how to effectively and legally conduct workplace investigations by addressing difficult issues, including where to start an investigation, who should be interviewed, how to handle a difficult witness, and the rights of employees during investigatory interviews. 

     

    MHHRA will be doing a 50/50 raffle to support the SHRM Foundation. The SHRM Foundation is dedicated to fostering the development of HR professionals through scholarship programs and research funding. The Foundation awards more than 200 scholarships annually, providing HR practitioners opportunities to earn certifications and pursue graduate or undergraduate degrees.
