November 27, 2018 - 12:00 p.m. Time: 12:00 p.m. Download PDF
  • Workplace investigations must be thorough, unbiased and timely, requiring precision work at every stage of the process. The evolution of the #MeToo movement has applied increasing scrutiny to workplace investigations, including whether, how and when to investigate – and key considerations related to communications and potential publicity arising from #MeToo and other workplace allegations. On Tuesday, November 27th at noon, please join Foster Pepper’s Employment & Labor law team, along with guest speakers Roger Nyhus and Heidi de Laubenfels of communications firm Nyhus, for a complimentary webinar exploring some of the complexities of this contemporary topic, including:
    • Deciding whether and when to conduct an investigation
    • Selecting an investigator
    • Planning the investigation
    • Assessing privilege and confidentiality considerations
    • Conducting witness interviews
    • Ensuring against retaliation, and other post-investigation follow-up steps
    • Understanding specialized public employer considerations
    • Planning and coordinating internal and/or external communications, if needed
    • Responding to unexpected publicity
