Internal Investigations Procedures Sample Clauses

Internal Investigations Procedures. A. The parties expressly agree that the following internal investigation procedures apply only to administrative investigations being conducted by OPA. Both parties affirm their commitment to comply with the intent of this Article. In the event an Association member is investigated, the lead investigative function will be performed by an officer of equal or greater rank, as long as officer(s) meeting this requirement are permanently assigned to OPA. If officers holding the rank of Lieutenant or Captain have been replaced through civilianization, the lead investigative function may be performed by a civilian permanently assigned to the OPA. In no event will these functions be performed by a lower ranking sworn official. All interviews will be consistent with the provisions of 16.4(H), regardless of the status or rank of the interviewer. This does not preclude investigative assistance by a non-bargaining unit member. In the case of criminal investigations, more limited rights to notice, advisements and representation may apply. Minor policy violations, incidents of minor misconduct and work performance issues will, at the discretion of OPA, be assigned for investigation by the chain of command and/or Human Resources.

Internal Investigations Procedures. A. Except in criminal cases or where notification would jeopardize the investigation, the Internal Investigations Section shall furnish the employee with a preliminary notification within ten (10) calendar days of the date the complaint is assigned for investigation by the Internal Investigations Section. The preliminary notification shall include, at a minimum, a copy of the complaint, the results of the Department’s preliminary review of the complaint, a list of the charges against the employee and the rules the employee is alleged to have violated, a factual summary of the allegations against the employee, and, if the Department intends to investigate the complaint, the procedures it intends to use in investigating the complaint (e.g., IIS investigation, line investigation, EEO investigation). Except in cases of criminal investigations, or where the complexity of the investiga­tion requires that the investigation take more time, or where an employee fails to cooperate or fully respond in a timely manner, the Internal Investigations Section will complete its investigation so that the review of the file may begin within ninety (90) days from the date of notification to the employee of the initiation of the investigation. To respond in a timely manner, an employee who is a witness or an accused must submit a full and complete written statement in response to a request within ten (10) days after the receipt of the request. The failure of an employee to respond in a timely manner will result in an extension of the 90-day limit by the additional amount of time the employee took to respond. Employees who have been notified that they are the subject of an internal investigation will be advised of the status of the investigation upon inquiry to the Internal Investigations Section. After ninety (90) days from the date of notification, they will be advised of the reasons for any delay in the completion of the investigation.
