Outline
INVESTIGATION MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
a) Principles & process of investigation
b) Stages of investigation: Preliminary, Follow up, Documentation & Review
There is always a need for quality control in any product or service provided. This is the same for the internal investigation process. This module will focus on the documentation that is necessary for completing an investigation and ensuring proper investigations conducted as required by the Employment Act. Also included are the best practices in preparing your investigation report for submission to your superior, committee or for legal proceedings.
LEGAL ISSUES AND EVIDENCE
a) Right to conduct interviews and admissibility of statements
b) Types of Evidence in disciplinary & misconduct cases
c) Evidential rules and proper handling, collection & preservation of evidence
d) Understanding & Analysis of Evidence
- 3P case analysis method
This part covers the evidential requirements in an investigation. To prove your case it is necessary to understand the rules relating to the admissibility of evidence in a Criminal or Civil proceeding in Court. Many investigations focus only on the identification and collection of existing evidence that are apparent. However potential evidence especially in cases with little initial evidence requires skillful analysis and follow-up investigations to uncover more evidence that may in isolation be insignificant but collectively conclusive proof.
To prove your case it is necessary to understand the legal requirements especially in terms of the evidential prove to support the case and the analysis of the evidence collected. For criminal case, it must be proven beyond reasonable doubt and for civil case on the balance of probabilities. These potential evidence even if undiscovered are extremely effective when use during the suspect interview.
ESSENTIALS OF AN INVESTIGATION REPORT
a) Effective presentation of factual reports
b) Best practices in completing incident and investigation reports
c) Practical in report writing based on customized scenario
This module covers the operational requirements in putting up an incident or investigation report. The report should be comprehensive and factual. Presenting an accurate and reliable report is critical for a decision to be made or follow-up action to be taken. It is also necessary to understand the process needed in completing such reports and the objectivity in the summary of the facts.
A practical on report writing based on the customized scenarios will be conducted at the end of the course where participants will apply the knowledge taught in putting up an investigation report. Difficulties encountered by participants in specific areas will be revisited during the review, followed by Q & A dialogue to reinforce lessons learnt.
