Madalene A.B. Witterholt
Crowe & Dunlevy

Come to our September program meeting as we will explore investigation techniques and strategies relevant to Title VII, FLSA, OSHA, and everything in between.

The employee did, said, saw, and !$%#*?

There is nothing an HR professional likes more than to hear from an employee, either directly or indirectly, that some type of harassing and discriminatory activities are occurring. Sometimes they are secondhand, and a lot of times they do not rise to the level of an action. However, that doesn't mean you don't have to investigate and deal with the situation.

At this program, Madalene Witterholt will share with you different strategies for handling the initial report, investigating the claim, dealing with co-workers, and putting into place safeguards so you don't have to have another meeting like this again. She will also highlight the most important legal issues for employers to know about before undertaking any investigation of employees.

Learning Objectives:

• Learn what is required to meet statutory investigative obligation.
  Proven strategies for thorough investigations.
  How to draft a good investigation memorandum.
