What Workplace Investigations looks like with CorLeon Group
When a complaint is serious, who investigates matters as much as what they find. An internal investigation by someone in the reporting line is challengeable on its face, however carefully it was run.
We investigate as an impartial third party: a defined scope, consistent interview methodology, evidence preserved, and a written report with findings on each allegation. You get a file you can act on and defend.
Signs your business needs Workplace Investigations
If more than one of these sounds familiar, the exposure is already there. It is cheaper to fix before a claim than after one.
A Complaint Against A Leader
The respondent is in the reporting line of anyone who might investigate internally.
An Investigator With A Conflict
The obvious person to look into it works with, reports to, or is friends with someone involved.
Allegations Older Than A Month
Time between complaint and response is the first thing anyone reviewing the matter will ask about.
Why this happens to Central Valley employers
Internal investigations fail on impartiality far more often than on effort. The person doing it usually knows everyone involved, and however carefully they work, the finding can be challenged on that basis alone.
The other common failure is structural. Interviews happen without a plan, notes are kept inconsistently, allegations are not separated out and addressed individually, and the resulting file cannot support whatever decision gets made. A defensible investigation is mostly a matter of method, applied the same way every time.
Growth outpaces process, and California rules change yearly. Undocumented practice becomes the exposure.
Everything included in Workplace Investigations

Who this is for
What you end up with
Four steps, start to finish
Scope
We define the allegations, the scope, the interview list and the timeline before starting.

A written report with a finding on each allegation and the basis for it.

Recommended action, communication plan, and the audit file handed over intact.
What drives the price of Workplace Investigations
Every engagement is quoted after a scoping call, so you see the number before you commit. These are the factors that move it.
Number Of Allegations
Each distinct allegation is investigated and reported on separately.
Witnesses To Interview
Interview count is the main driver of time in almost every investigation.
Urgency And Deadlines
An agency deadline or a respondent still in post compresses the timeline and is scoped accordingly.
We do not publish rates because a figure without a scope is meaningless. Call (559) 334-5546 and we will tell you what your situation costs.

Internal investigations are frequently challenged on impartiality, especially where the respondent is a leader or in the investigator's reporting line. A third-party investigation removes that argument.
