Why external
Why employers move certain matters outside.
Some complaints should not be handled internally. External investigations are often warranted because:
- Conflicts of Interest exist: actual or perceived
- Elevated reputational risk: allegations against leadership
- Control: decisions supported by a clear record and procedural fairness
- Neutral fact finder: withstand scrutiny by counsel, boards, arbitrators, or tribunals.
