Mandate recorded and signed transcripts for all formal workplace investigations.

Mandate recorded and signed transcripts for all formal workplace investigations. — 69 signatures. Status: open.

Petition background

Unverified minutes can cause unfair dismissals & disputes. Mandating audio recordings, free automated smartphone transcripts, & signed confirmation from all attendees would help protect workers, remove cost barriers, and ensure absolute clarity.

Additional details

We call on the Government to legislate for formal work investigations to be audio-recorded, transcribed, and signed by all participants. Unverified, one-sided minutes can cause severe confusion, disputes, and unfair dismissals. Mandating audio recordings, free smartphone transcripts, and mutual sign-offs would help ensure transparency and protect workers. This tech would help to remove financial barriers for small businesses and save thousands in avoided tribunal fees.
