Workplace grievances and allegations of misconduct, sexual harassment and bullying are becoming all too common. 

Taking appropriate and proportionate action, and following a compliant process, is essential, given the potential reputational damage to both the company and employee(s), and potential cost of claims that could arise from poor handling of such matters. 

It is often prudent to refer such matters for independent investigation, so that the company can rely on a thorough and impartial report that assesses any allegations made and makes recommendations. 

Our investigators handle such matters with the utmost sensitivity and care. 

Our mediators have completed specific mediation education and training through the Australian Disputes Centre (ADC) and can help resolve and settle disputes without a costly and stressful Court process.
