Responding to misconduct allegations

An organizations response to allegations of misconduct must be prompt. This can be extremely challenging due to lack of investigative resources, stringent time constraints, or a lack of defined policies and protocols. 

An organization’s response to allegations of misconduct can have a significant impact. Effective investigations are able to:

• Identify the relevant facts and circumstances surrounding alleged misconduct
• Understand the pervasiveness of misconduct
• Assess the potential impact to the organization’s culture
• Take appropriate corrective and remedial actions based on the facts gathered.
