The investigation process is key to making sure employees of your organisation are treated fairly. A good investigation process ensures situations are dealt with effectively and consistently, increasing productivity, employee trust and compliance with employment laws.

In view of the recent quashing of Employment Tribunal fees, it is expected that far more unfair dismissal challenges are likely to be presented in the forthcoming months. Employers therefore need robust disciplinary procedures in place to ensure they are ready to defend these challenges.
