Workplace Investigations
Determine workplace solutions with our talented and highly experienced workplace investigation team. Our investigators utilize effective strategies for uncovering facts and resolving workplace challenges.
At McLennan Ross, we understand the critical role of effective workplace investigations. Mishandled claims or inadequately conducted investigations can prove detrimental, from an organizational, financial, and reputational standpoint. To safeguard our clients and third parties, we conduct meticulous investigations and ensure comprehensive documentation, all in accordance with legal requirements. Our investigations empower informed decision-making, helping to address current issues and/or to preemptively address future matters.
Recognizing the urgency inherent in occupational health and safety, human resources, and labour relations matters, we deliver prompt attention, discretion, and sensitivity in our investigations. Whether leading a comprehensive investigation or collaborating with parties on an internal review, we ensure procedural integrity and legal compliance.
