When a complaint arises, the instinct is often to investigate internally. But internal investigations carry serious risks — perceived bias, legal vulnerability, and erosion of trust on all sides.
An independent external investigator eliminates these risks. Under Bill C-65 and human rights frameworks, independence is not just best practice — in many cases, it is a legal requirement.
Hear from employers who have worked with Roots Investigation Services.
"Roots handled our Bill C-65 matter professionally and discreetly. The report was clear and legally defensible. As a small business we had no idea where to start — they guided us every step of the way."
"A whistleblower complaint caught us completely off guard. Roots moved quickly, kept everything confidential, and gave us exactly what we needed. I would recommend them to any employer, big or small."
"We brought Roots in to investigate a harassment complaint involving a long-term employee. The process was handled with complete impartiality. The final report was clear, fair, and actionable."
