Managerial Accountability and Responsibilities

Manager Responsibilities

Managers must take reports seriously, initiate initial assessments, and coordinate with HR or the investigations team. They should avoid interfering with the process and maintain privacy.

Timely Action

Initial inquiries should occur within a defined timeframe, followed by appropriate steps such as interim measures if needed to protect employees.

Documentation and Communication

All actions, decisions, and outcomes must be documented clearly. Communicate next steps to the affected employees while preserving confidentiality.
