INVESTIGATIONS
WG Resolutions helps organizations investigate complaints and incidents of harassment, bullying, discrimination, sexual harassment, sexual violence, physical violence, poisoned work environments, incivility, conflicts of interest, reprisal, and other workplace policy violations.
Focused on Resolution
WG Resolutions assesses each new matter to create a legally sound, proportionate investigation process focused on resolving the issues at the heart of the complaint. The investigation process will reflect the nature of the complaint or incident, the relationship between the parties, and your workplace culture to ensure that the fact-finding process does not unduly impact the parties or your workplace.
Flexible with Fees
WG Resolutions wants to ensure that you can effectively allocate resources when you need to conduct an investigation. WG Resolutions offers a variety of alternative fee arrangements, including flat fees, for all matters.
MEDIATION
Whether there is a legal claim that needs to be resolved, a working relationship gone awry, or a group of employees divided by interpersonal conflict, mediation can offer the opportunity to have safe, difficult conversations to help people gain a better understanding of each other's interests and create a mutually beneficial solution.
WG Resolutions offers mediation services for all types of interpersonal conflict and legal claims in the workplace.
ASSESSMENTS
Sometimes employees have concerns about their workplace culture but are reluctant to raise a formal complaint. An assessment can provide insight into these concerns while protecting the identity of the employees who expressed them.
WG Resolutions conducts assessments to help organizations improve their workplace culture and can assist with any or all of the following steps in the assessment process:
Process Design
Deciding what questions need to be asked, who should be asked these questions, and the method for asking them (confidential surveys, focus groups, and/or interviews).
Information Gathering
Disseminating surveys, conducting interviews and focus groups, and summarizing the information gathered in an organized and accessible report.
Recommendations
Suggesting solutions that are practical and reflect evidence-based research on workplace management and organizational behaviour.
Implementation
Fulfilling a plan to implement the recommendations in a way that is supportive, efficient, and meaningfully addresses the concerns identified by employees.
TRAINING
WG Resolutions provides engaging training for organizations, with interactive exercises and accessible legal content, that leaves participants with a better understanding of how to identify and address workplace harassment and interpersonal conflict.
