In this installment of Ogletree Deakins’ Safety Basics podcast series, shareholders John Surma (Houston) and Erika Leonard (Austin) examine the intersection of employment law and workplace health and safety law. Erika and John cover internal employment investigations when a safety incident has occurred and consider decisions such as who should conduct the investigation, whether to conduct witness interviews, and the ins and outs of reviewing documentation and physical spaces and/or objects that may be involved. John and Erika also offer insight into potential compensation and/or leave and accommodation issues, and the importance of determining whether an incident warrants employee discipline or discharge.
