Workplace Hearings and Investigations

It’s important to get it right

We specialise in helping employers with workplace investigations and employee hearings

Managing issues arising from employee’s behaviour can be time-consuming, emotionally charged, and difficult. That’s why we’re here to provide calm, clear, and independent support when you need it most.

The Courts and Tribunals are littered with cases that have been won or lost because of how a workplace investigation or employee hearing has been conducted.But it isn’t only about managing the legal risk. It is equally important to avoid a breakdown within your team and potential reputational damage. As they say,

“Not only must Justice be done; it must also be seen to be done.”

Treddan is a leading provider of professional workplace investigations.

We specialise in conducting impartial investigations and hearings on behalf of employers.
