Major Considerations for Conducting a Compliance Investigation
Conducting a compliance investigation can sometimes feel like you’re looking for a needle in a haystack. Frustrating, time-consuming, and seemingly impossible to resolve. The quick and easy solution, of course, is to burn the haystack and sift through the ashes. But, not when that haystack is your company. Bear in mind that the purpose of your investigation is to strengthen your organization, not torch it. Thus, there are parameters investigators must observe and lines they must not cross. Anyone conducting a compliance investigation must act in accordance with legal and ethical protocols, and proceed in a way that is minimally intrusive on the organization’s operations.
