Teamwirks Investigations

EXPERT, INDEPENDENT & PROFESSIONAL WORKPLACE INVESTIGATIONS

Sound management of legal risk

Our investigations have proven to be legally defensible. Commissioner Nick Wilson in the decision of Anthony King v The Trustee for Bartlett Family Trust t/a Concept Wire Industries (U2017/1068) praised the approach taken by Katherine Wirth Consulting (now Teamwirks), describing the investigation process as “meticulous and balanced” and commenting on how the report got to “the heart of the situation”.

 

“Our workplace relations team has been engaging Katherine Wirth and the Teamwirks team to conduct workplace investigations on behalf of clients for many years and we could not be happier with the service provided. What stands out compared to many other investigators is the quality of the analysis in their reports, their regular progress reports during more complex matters (so we can keep our clients updated and manage expectations) and their ability to identify the key themes/ underlying issues at play (which adds real value) rather than simply making ‘cookie cutter’ findings and recommendations. For matters that are sensitive, complex and/or likely to become litigious, you can trust Teamwirks to handle the investigation professionally and appropriately, including ensuring that due process is followed at each stage.”

“Katherine investigated a highly sensitive and complex sexual harassment matter for us. Through Katherine’s thorough and professional investigation, we discovered that the individuals’ behaviour had impacted a number of people in the organisation. Katherine’s investigation enabled us to fully understand the extent of the situation and take immediate steps to resolve the issue. Due to the circumstances surrounding the complaint, having external support added to the credibility of the process and subsequent outcomes”
