Die Kodifikation von Internal Investigations

»The Codification of Internal Investigations. A Proposal to Harmonize Employee Rights, Corporate Interests and the Effectiveness of Law Enforcement« Nowadays, internal investigations are considered an indispensable part of an effective compliance management system. In view of this development, the legislator intends to codify certain principles. Under critical appraisal, the study makes its own proposal for the legal design of internal investigations. In addition to the guarantee of labour and data protection standards, an absolute, independent exclusion of evidence in favour of an employee, who must incriminate himself during an employee interview, is to be created.
