Operational questions
Questions clients often ask
Who receives the report?
Only the authorized audience agreed during intake, subject to lawful disclosure requirements.
Can ARN decide disciplinary action?
No. ARN can establish and organize findings; the client, HR, and legal advisers decide next steps.
What if evidence is incomplete?
The report states what was verified, what conflicts, what remains unresolved, and the limits this creates.
