LEWISTON — The Central Maine Human Resources Association is offering a program on how to handle investigations of employee issues Tuesday, Oct. 17.

Registration will begin at 7:30 a.m. with the program beginning at 7:45 a.m. at the Carriage House, 1119 Lisbon St.

Jeff Cutler, SHRM-SCP, senior employee relations consultant, vice president, TD Bank, N.A., will be the speaker. 

Properly investigating employee claims is often highly sensitive and emotional and includes a significant degree of complexity. The program will explore approaches that will assist attendees with fact-gathering, interviewing skills, assessment and advice. Providing a sense of fairness and authority are also key ingredients to successful outcomes. Cutler will examine how to conduct an investigation and reduce the risk of claims in the process.

There will be time to network before and after the program.
