OVERVIEW
Improper handling of misconduct cases or Domestic Inquiries (DI) often ends with the Industrial Court siding with the employee, resulting in heavy financial consequences for the employer.
People managers and HR professionals face constant pressure to manage misconduct swiftly, fairly, and in full compliance with the law. This program provides a practical, interactive, and legally grounded approach to managing both major and minor misconduct issues with confidence.
This two-day, hands-on course equips participants with a solid understanding of why a proper Domestic Inquiry is essential, and how strict procedural requirements can make or break a case at the Industrial Court. Participants will learn the complete process from preliminary investigations up to post-inquiry actions, while understanding the legal principles, procedural expectations, and common pitfalls that jeopardize employer decisions.
A highlight of this program is the MOCK Domestic Inquiry, where participants will apply what they have learned in a realistic scenario. This experience helps them build real confidence and practical competency in conducting Domestic Inquiries at their workplace.
