Internal Investigations
HR Solutions
No organization is immune from the many situations which might prompt the need for an internal investigation. For example, an applicant may file a discrimination lawsuit, or an employee may make an EEOC complaint, claim sexual harassment, discrimination, wrongful termination, or retaliation. Companies may need to investigate alleged violations of company policies, falsification of records including timecards, criminal behavior, or threats against other employees. Handled improperly, any of these situations could escalate into costly legal matters, impact employee morale, and possibly damage the reputation of your organization.
Whether we partner with your current HR Team, in-house counsel, or step in as a third-party investigator, the Athena team has the expertise to conduct timely, fair, and efficient investigations. Investigations can be very emotional for those involved and can greatly impact employee morale and productivity, which is why acting quickly is essential. We will conduct a thorough and unbiased investigation, handling the matter professionally and confidentially, and provide a complete analysis of our findings and recommendations for appropriate remedial measures.
​
While we are committed to helping your organization avoid any possible litigation, we are not attorneys. Therefore, if we believe an investigation is at a place where more in depth legal expertise is necessary, we will provide documentation in support of our recommendations.
