Investigating worker-client issues

How do you resolve stakeholder complaints?


Complaints, allegations, incidents, or disputes involving an employee and a service-user, stakeholder or client require a prompt response by the organisation.


An independent workplace investigation is a formal fact-finding process that must be conducted professionally from interview stage through to the final report. Types of worker-client issues requiring a formal investigation may include:


Crossing professional boundaries e.g., becoming too personally involved, personally over-disclosing, overuse of touch

Harassment e.g., sexual harassment, violence, abuse, threats, intimidation, gaslighting

Misconduct or neglect e.g., breaking code of conduct, failing duty of care

Quality of service dissatisfaction or disputes e.g., complaint of poor or unmet services

Breaching privacy or confidentiality e.g., mishandling of client information, a suspected data breach involving a client's sensitive information

Breach of safety or record keeping protocols causing risk or harm

Historical conflict between the organisation and the stakeholder or family member.


WorkPlacePLUS takes a respectful, communication-centred approach to investigating worker-client issues. By getting to the heart of the matter, we can identify and recommended the next steps forward towards resolution.
