Frequently asked questions

What level of detail should I include in the HR investigation report?

Include enough detail to demonstrate thoroughness without overwhelming readers. Document all allegations, investigation steps, evidence collected, interview summaries, policy violations identified, and your reasoning for conclusions. Focus on relevant facts rather than opinions, and ensure you’ve documented both supporting and contradicting evidence for each allegation investigated.

How do I maintain confidentiality while writing a thorough HR investigation report?

Use role-based identifiers instead of names when possible. Create separate confidential appendices for sensitive information. Clearly mark all documents as confidential and limit distribution to only those with a legitimate need to know. Remind all participants about confidentiality expectations and document these reminders in your report.

What evidence should I attach to my HR investigation report?

Attach only directly relevant evidence that supports your findings, including interview notes, written statements, relevant emails or messages, photos of physical evidence, and applicable company policies. Create an organized evidence log with clear labels and cross-references to your report. Exclude irrelevant personal information that could violate privacy.

What timeframe information should I include in the HR investigation report?

Document the date the complaint was received, when the investigation began, interview dates, evidence collection timeline, and when the investigation concluded. Include explanations for any delays. This timeline demonstrates prompt action and helps establish a chronological understanding of events for anyone reviewing the report later.
