Employment Investigations in APAC: Steering Clear of the Quagmire

In-house counsel and human resources find themselves in the all-too-frequent position of planning and carrying out investigations of employee misconduct. Such conduct may be complaints regarding a toxic personality, violations of company policies, or significant issues of employee ethics or professionalism. This one-hour Q&A panel-program will set up several scenarios common in Asia and discuss how regional in-house counsel and human resource professionals can avoid common mistakes. Participants will come away with the following:

• Attorney-client privilege considerations
• In-house counsel's role(s) in investigations
• Gathering data from laptops, monitoring employee behavior, and chain of custody concerns
• Mandatory processes before adverse employment actions
