Guide to Conducting Investigations

29th August 2016

National Disability Services has just released a new resource on Conducting Investigations, a guide for Victorian service providers, downloadable from their Zero Tolerance website.

This guide aims to provide clear, consistent advice on how to conduct an investigation that is person-centred and meets internal and external requirements, including the Disability Worker Exclusion Scheme (DWES), when conducting investigations into alleged abuse, neglect, and violence toward people with disability, including:

  • Guidance on how to conduct thorough internal disciplinary investigation
  • Linking with external organisations and the criminal justice system to meet legal and statutory requirements
  • Clarity on investigative requirements under the DWES

Download this guide from the NDS Zero Tolerance website. Learn more about investigations by Disability Services Commissioner.
