Workplace Investigations and the Law

In this webinar focused on employment and workplace safety law, Andrew Burnett will explorer how established common law rules may be applied during investigations, the powers of an investigator, the onus of proof in light of the Briginshaw principles and the conduct of investigations.

Andrew has over 24 years of experience in employment law, and investigates all forms of workplace misconduct including sexual harassment, unlawful discrimination, bullying, abuse of executive position, theft of confidential information, serious misconduct, breaches of conduct rules and policies, and breaches of safety duties.

By attending this webinar, you will enhance your ability to recognise workplace situations that require investigation and sufficient legal knowledge to ensure your clients are aware of their duty to investigate and to help protect them from breaching that duty.
