World@Work: Workplace sexual harassment and whistleblower investigations

In the latest episode of our World@Work series, we discuss several nations’ contrasting approaches to workplace investigations relating to whistleblower reports and sexual harassment issues. An expert panel from around the globe explains what is prompting the surge in internal investigations and how employers in various jurisdictions are rising to the challenges. Along the way, they discuss their nation’s approaches to employer liability, prevention, complaint handling  and allegations, timeframes, fines and compensation, plus other sensitivities and complexities of workplace investigations. It’s an illuminating summary that highlights trends and options  of note to employers and HR teams everywhere. Ashurst’s Kirsten Scott hosts this episode from Perth, Australia. She’s joined by Crowley Woodford in the UK, Andreas Mauroschat in Germany, Cristina Grande in Spain, Norman Ibnuaji in Indonesia and Jordan Cohen in France.
