How to Conduct an Investigation
It should be noted that this investigation and report does not replace any required WCB or on-line reporting forms that are to be completed by the Employee and Supervisor, nor does it replace any investigations that need to be conducted by the RSS department on campus. This is for the department’s own investigation and follow-up procedures. On-line forms can be found at Incident Reporting & Investigation
