Here at Carcich O’Shea, our attorneys have vast experience in representing management in employment and labor law matters. We also specialize in assisting employers understand employment laws so that they do not violate any statute. Our expertise includes training and educating employers about harassment and discrimination claim investigations. It is important to know that employee training and proper investigations can reduce the legal costs and employer exposure in the case of inevitable litigation.
New Jersey law mandates that an employer has to conduct appropriate investigations of any potential workplace harassment complaints. Workplace training and investigations are an integral part of resolving alleged misconduct and harassment in the workplace. As a professional employer, conducting an inadequate investigation of a report of discrimination or retaliation can create liabilities for your company, and potentially lead to even more damages. Furthermore, the decisions that an employer makes due to a badly conducted investigation can lead to detrimental consequences.
Employers have to make sure that they follow an investigation process that is fair for all the implicated parties. This investigation has to consider the relevant information before the enforcement of discipline on the accused.
Hiring an attorney to render help to an employer during an investigation is more important than you think. An attorney will be able to guide the employer on what to do so that liabilities can be avoided, and their legal rights would be protected. Apart from holding workplace training, attorneys can review the harassment/discrimination complaint so that a proper investigation report can be documented.
Workplace training and investigation attorneys can also assist clients in interviewing the parties involved and make proper documentation of their statements. Reports that the attorney writes will include detailed analysis and evidence. Attorneys can also help to recommend the most appropriate corrective action based on the facts of the case and the type of policy violations that are involved in the complaint.
