REGULATORY
INVESTIGATIONS
As a regulated profession, you inevitably receive complaints with respect to your registered members. These complaints can involve minor to serious allegations of unprofessional conduct, including sexual misconduct and other offences that may require an independent third party to conduct an unbiased and fact-based investigation.
Why Engage A Third Party
Regulated professions, particularly those governed by the Health Professions Act, have a duty to thoroughly investigate allegations of misconduct involving their members. These professions have extensive powers to intervene and investigate complaints, ensuring public trust is maintained.
While regulated professions are often diligent in addressing misconduct allegations, it is essential that the investigative process is fair to both the professional under review and the complainant. Ensuring impartiality and fairness for all parties involved is critical to the integrity of the process.
In some cases, while internal teams may handle certain complaints, an initial review could indicate the need for a more comprehensive investigation by an independent third-party investigator. Engaging an external expert not only demonstrates due diligence but also ensures an unbiased, fact-based investigation. This approach offers vital support to internal teams that may lack the specialized expertise or capacity to conduct detailed inquiries.
Depending on the seriousness of the allegations, the individuals involved, and other relevant factors, an external investigation may be necessary. IRISS is well-positioned to provide the expertise and objectivity required to ensure a fair and thorough investigation within regulated professions.
