Investigating problem employees
Sometimes issues will arise in work caused by a particular employee. They don’t appear problematic, they are just always at the centre of problems. No formal complaint may have been raised against them, but they just seem like a trouble-maker and you’ve heard grumblings from several people about their behaviour and attitude.
It’s difficult to know what to do. Should you speak to them, do you speak to their colleagues, or does that seem like you’re interfering?
Even though the issue seems trivial, it will need to be dealt with before it becomes a problem. You need to investigate the matter to ensure it’s resolved. But you’re busy, you’ve got a lot to do, investigations can take a long time to deal with, it’s not such a problem at the moment, why not wait a bit?
Because you might have staff going off sick, resigning, submitting grievances, arguing openly in front of their colleagues or your clients. The problem will get bigger, involve more people, and be more difficult to resolve.
But their is a simple solution for everyone concerned. Let us deal with the matter for you in a confidential, impartial manner to get to the root of the problem.
We will come to your premises, conduct the investigation by speaking to those concerned, obtain any relevant documentary evidence before providing you with a report detailing our findings and recommending an outcome to the matter.
This will leave you free to deal with other issues safe in the knowledge the matter will be dealt with correctly, professionally, and independently.
