Document background
The Letter Inviting Employee To Investigation Meeting is a crucial document in workplace investigations under English and Welsh employment law. It is used when formal investigation of potential misconduct, performance issues, or grievances is required. The letter serves as official documentation of the investigation process, protecting both employer and employee interests. It must comply with ACAS guidelines and relevant employment legislation, including the Employment Rights Act 1996. The letter should be issued with reasonable notice, clearly state the purpose of the investigation, and inform the employee of their right to be accompanied.
