Invite an employee suspected of misconduct to an investigatory meeting
Key points
If an employee is suspected of misconduct, the employer must carry out a fair investigation into the allegations and gather evidence to establish the facts of the case.
Depending on the circumstances, it may be necessary for the employer to hold an investigatory meeting with the employee concerned.
Where an investigatory meeting is necessary, the employer should give the employee advance warning and time to prepare for it.
