How It Works
A Transparent and Consistent Process
Today, employees report only 10% of workplace misconduct because they do not understand internal processes and fear retaliation.
People First informs employees of the internal process before they file a case. The workflow allows employees to report by answering four questions and builds trust through a transparent resolution process.
“Internal resolution of claims that do not result in legal fees take an average of 275 days”
Automated Escalation
Reports follow an escalation path designated by HR. Cases have a fixed time for resolution per level, encouraging timely resolutions within your HR team. If a report isn’t resolved in a predetermined amount of time, it is automatically escalated to a more senior member on the path.
“Only 10% of workplace harassment is reported. A big reason is that 75% of reported cases result in some form of retaliation.”
Resolution and Closure
Resolution happens when both the case owner and company agree that the incident has been resolved, giving both parties closure. People First periodically checks back with the employee in order to deter possible retaliation.
“39% of all cases are resolved unfavorably for the complainant. That goes to 49% for women.”
