Individual Stressors: Personal stressors can spill over into the workplace, affecting behavior.
Conflict Triggers: Identifying patterns that lead to confrontations.

Our four-step investigation process ensures thoroughness:
Receive a Complaint: We listen carefully to complainants, documenting their concerns.
Assess Allegations: We determine if the conduct meets the definition of workplace violence or harassment.
Conduct Interviews: We interview relevant parties—complainants, respondents, witnesses, and supervisors.
Report Findings: Our detailed report outlines root causes and recommended actions.
3. Preventative Strategies
Armed with insights, we collaborate with your organization to prevent future incidents:
Policy Enhancement: Review and strengthen policies related to workplace violence and harassment.
