What do you do when a chronic underperformer abuses their flexible work arrangement? How can you handle discrimination allegations against a manager who is taking affirmative actions? What does it mean to have a ‘zero tolerance’ policy? Advanced Workplace Investigation Standards uses case studies to unpack the complexities of bullying, harassment, discrimination, and complaints procedures in the modern workplace, and provides HR practitioners with expert guidance to help navigate each situation.
