Free Ontario workplace investigation quiz — know your OHSA duty, matter complexity, realistic cost range, and the next three steps in 5 minutes.
Clarity before the next conversation.
- 01Whether OHSA or the Human Rights Code obligates you to investigate
- 02Whether the matter is simple, moderate, or complex — and why that shapes cost
- 03A realistic cost range compared to law-firm pricing
- 04The three to five concrete next steps to take this week
Seven questions. Four readings.
Your answers run through a rules engine built on Ontario's OHSA, Human Rights Code, and ESA — the same logic that generates your downloadable PDF.
- 01Legal obligation. Maps your situation to the specific OHSA s.32.0.7 harassment duty and Human Rights Code triggers that apply — with the statutory references that govern your duty to investigate.
- 02Urgency level. Flags whether you are on an immediate, urgent, or standard timeline, based on the nature of the allegation and any interim-measures risk.
- 03Investigation type. Classifies the matter as simple, moderate, or complex — the driver behind scope, investigator selection, and cost.
- 04Cost range & next steps. Returns a fixed-fee range benchmarked against typical Ontario law-firm hourly billing ($425–$625/hr), plus the three to five concrete moves to make this week.
Anyone who just got a complaint.
- 01Ontario HR leaders who need to know fast whether a complaint legally obligates an investigation — and how to scope it before it escalates.
- 02Owners and operators without HR carrying the people function themselves, who need a defensible read before making a call that affects liability.
- 03In-house counsel and C-suite pressure-testing exposure and a realistic cost band before briefing the board or retaining outside counsel.
Workplace Investigations — independent, impartial, legally defensible.
OHSA-compliant investigations at 40–60% less than law firms, completed in 2–6 weeks. Reports that hold up on legal review. Not sure where to start? The Ontario investigation triage maps your obligation and next move.
Questions, answered.
- What does this workplace investigation quiz tell me?
- The quiz gives you a personalized read on whether OHSA or the Human Rights Code obligates you to investigate, how complex the matter is, a realistic cost range versus law-firm pricing, and the three to five concrete next steps to take this week.
- Is this quiz a legal audit or legal advice?
- No. The quiz is a diagnostic to help you think through obligations and next steps before a call. It is not legal advice and does not replace counsel. For a formal audit or opinion, talk to an investigator or employment lawyer.
- Who should take this workplace investigation assessment?
- It is designed for Ontario HR leaders, owners, in-house counsel, and operators who have just received a complaint or suspect an emerging issue. It takes about five minutes and works whether you have an internal HR function or none at all.
- What happens after I complete the assessment?
- You get a personalized summary with your legal exposure, recommended investigation path, and a cost range benchmarked against law-firm rates. From there you can download further resources, book a 30-minute call, or hand the summary to existing counsel.
- Is the workplace investigation quiz free?
- Yes. The assessment is free, takes about five minutes, and does not require a credit card. You can complete it anonymously and only share your contact details if you want a follow-up.
