Workplace investigations require consistency, care, and legal awareness—especially when trust, psychological safety, and risk are on the line. This guide provides HR with clear, step-by-step checklists for before, during, and after an investigation, helping ensure each process is fair, defensible, and trauma-informed. From identifying applicable laws and creating an investigation plan to conducting neutral interviews and documenting findings, this resource supports HR professionals in navigating complex situations with confidence and credibility.
Designed to strengthen organizational trust, the checklists include interview scripts, documentation standards, EEOC evaluation criteria, and post-investigation best practices—along with reminders of common pitfalls to avoid. By grounding investigations in consistency, transparency, and empathy, HR can reduce escalation, protect the organization, and reinforce a culture where employees feel heard, respected, and safe to speak up.
