Description
Domestic Inquiry: The Complete Guide (Investigation, Prosecution, Procedure)
Module Overview
In managing employee discipline, justice must not only be done, but must be seen to be done. The "Twin Pillars" of Natural Justice—“No person shall be condemned unheard” and “No person shall sit in judgment in a case in which they are interested”—must be strictly adhered to.
This programme is designed to equip employees appointed to conduct Domestic Inquiries (DI) with the knowledge and skills to ensure smooth, fair, and legally compliant proceedings. Participants will learn how to manage investigations, handle prosecutions, and guide the DI process effectively while upholding employee and employer rights.
