Description

While many companies shifted to a remote workforce after the COVID-19 outbreak, this did not necessarily result in a slowdown in investigations. At the time, government agencies in fact cautioned companies not to let down their guard in conducting investigations. Now, as employees slowly return to office spaces, while others continue to work remotely, learn about striking the appropriate balance of leveraging remote technology, adapting investigative strategies, and integrating updated best-practice guidance for effectively managing internal and government investigations during the ongoing crisis.
