5. Conclusions and recommendations for action

This report serves as a comprehensive record of the investigation process and its outcomes. It provides a factual basis for decision-making regarding disciplinary actions, policy changes, or other remedial measures. The document typically includes a chronology of events, summaries of interviews conducted, and analysis of relevant documents or data. It may also address any legal or regulatory implications of the findings. The report often concludes with recommendations for addressing the specific incident and preventing similar occurrences in the future. It usually maintains confidentiality by using anonymized references to individuals involved. The investigation report is typically prepared by the lead investigator or investigation team and is shared with senior management, legal counsel, and other relevant stakeholders on a need-to-know basis. It serves as a critical tool for demonstrating the organization’s commitment to addressing compliance issues and can be important in interactions with regulators or external auditors.
