Internal Investigations (A) The parties recognize that Florida Highway Patrol personnel occupy a special place in American society. Therefore, it is understood that the state has the right to expect that a professional standard of conduct be adhered to by all Florida Highway Patrol personnel regardless of rank or assignment. Since internal investigations may be undertaken to inquire into complaints of Florida Highway Patrol misconduct, the state reserves the right to conduct such investigations to uncover the facts in each case, but expressly agrees to carefully guard and protect the rights and dignity of accused personnel. In the course of an internal investigation, the investigative methods employed will be consistent with the law (including but not limited to section 112.532, F.S.) and this agreement; nothing in this agreement, however, shall be deemed to diminish the rights of employees under applicable law. (B) When an allegation is made against an employee, the state will make every reasonable effort to ensure that the allegation and any related statements are reduced to writing, under oath, and signed. The written allegation shall be known as a complaint. (C) When an employee is to be questioned or interviewed concerning a complaint or allegation, the employee will be informed prior to the interview of the nature of the investigation and whether he is the subject of the investigation or a witness in an investigation. Employees shall be informed of the right to have a union representative in attendance at the interview and where requested, an employee shall be given 48 hours to contact, consult with, and secure the attendance of a representative at the interview. If he is the subject of the investigation, the employee and his representative will also be informed of each complaint or allegation against him and they shall be permitted to review all written statements and recordings made by the complainant and witnesses at least two hours prior to the commencement of the interview in accordance with section 112, F.S. In the event the written statement or recordings are such that additional review time is warranted, the employee may request, and be granted, additional time unless the request is made for the purposes of delay. Pursuant to section 112.533, F.S., the employee who is the subject of the investigation shall not disclose the contents to anyone other than his representative or attorney until the investigation is complete. (D) Interviews and questioning of employees shall be conducted in a professional manner. Statements from an employee shall not be taken in a coercive manner. (E) The formal interrogation of an employee shall comply with the provisions of section 112.532, F.S. The employee shall receive a copy of his written or recorded statement at no cost to the employee. No recording or transcription of the investigative interview will be made without the knowledge of all participants present at the interview. (F) In cases where the agency determines that the employee’s absence from the work location is essential to the investigation and the employee cannot be reassigned to other duties pending completion of the investigation, the employee shall be placed on administrative leave with pay. Such leave shall be in accordance with Chapter 60L-34, F.A.C. (G) Unless required by statute, no employee shall be required to submit to a polygraph test or any device designed to measure the truthfulness of his responses during an investigation of a complaint or allegation. (H) Only sustained findings may be inserted in personnel records. Unfounded findings shall not be inserted in permanent personnel records or referred to in performance reviews. (I) Internal investigations will ordinarily be completed within 45 days from the date the complaint is filed, unless circumstances necessitate a longer period. An investigation shall not exceed 120 days without the approval of the Agency Head or designee. Except in the case of a criminal investigation, the employee shall be notified in writing of any investigation that exceeds 120 days. (J) The employee under investigation shall be advised in writing of the results of the investigation at its conclusion. (K) The state will make a good faith effort to train persons who investigate charges against employees in the investigative rights reserved for those employees in the interest of avoiding infringement of those rights. (L) In the case of criminal, non-administrative internal investigation into the criminal misconduct of a sworn employee, the provisions of (B) through (K) shall not apply.
