Professional clarification in cases of bullying, harassment and discrimination

Learn the methods of a criminologist!

This webinar is held in German.
What to do if it happens anyway? Despite comprehensive preventative measures, it can happen in any company that allegations of cross-border misconduct in the workplace need to be investigated. But how can the HR department, for example, proceed in a structured and professional manner if the evidence is unclear and the statements of the persons concerned appear contradictory? In this webinar, you will learn how to professionalize your investigation processes and evaluate the credibility of statements more reliably in order to arrive at a well-founded assessment of the incident. You will learn how to use psychological methods to optimize your own questioning skills in order to better distinguish between lies and truth using forensic techniques. You will find out how you can establish a professional approach in your own organization with the help of criminal investigation concepts and legal requirements from the Whistleblower Protection Act and the General Equal Treatment Act.
