Common use of Investigation Phase Clause in Contracts

Investigation Phase. Any faculty member asked to participate in an investigatory interview is entitled, upon request, to have an Association Representative present during such interview. If circumstances warrant, the accused faculty member may be placed on suspension of duties for up to five (5) workdays without pay with approval of the Executive Director of Human Resources where it is necessary to carry out an effective investigation. Suspension without pay for up to five (5) days by the Executive Director of Human Resources may occur and be implemented by the Executive Director of Human Resources only in instances where a prima facie case exists against a faculty member. In no instance shall a faculty member be placed on unpaid leave in excess of five (5) scheduled workdays during the Investigation Phase unless the additional time is caused by an outside investigatory agency. Upon request, the faculty member may use Personal Leave to credit the unpaid suspension time to the extent they have Personal Leave available. If the President decides that formal corrective action is warranted, then the suspension during the Investigation Phase will be credited when serving a formal disciplinary suspension and the affected individual shall be made whole for the difference between the assessed formal corrective suspension and the number of days they had been suspended without pay. If the President gives no corrective action, then the time served without pay during the investigation, including any Personal Leave used, will be given back to the accused faculty member and that individual shall be made whole. If the faculty member is removed from their position for just cause, there shall be no compensation for the time off during the investigation.
