WHY DO WE NEED
WORKPLACE MEDIATION
Many workplaces nowadays are filled with employees who have different backgrounds, personalities, and perspectives. While this diversity can be a source of creativity and innovation, it can also lead to misunderstandings and conflicts. Workplace mediation is a process that can help to resolve these disputes in a constructive and mutually-agreeable way. The mediator acts as a neutral third party, facilitating communication between the parties involved and helping them to identify common ground. Through mediation, employees can learn to better understand and communicate with their colleagues, leading to a more positive workplace culture. Additionally, mediation can help to prevent small disagreements from escalating into larger conflicts. As a result, mediation can be an invaluable tool for preventing workplace conflict and promoting a positive work environment.

Frequently Asked Questions
Workplace mediation is a process where an impartial third party assists employees in resolving conflict through facilitated discussion. Mediation can be used to resolve conflicts of all types, including disagreements about job duties, disrespectful behaviour, or interpersonal issues. The goal of mediation is to help employees resolve their differences in a way that is mutually acceptable and that does not further damage the working relationship. The mediator does not make decisions or tell the parties what to do; rather, he or she facilitates communication and encourages the parties to find their own solutions.
In arbitration, both sides present their case to an arbitrator, who then makes a binding decision. Litigation, on the other hand, is a process where the case is presented before a judge in a court of law. Workplace mediation is different in that it is voluntary; neither side is forced to participate, and the mediator does not make any decisions.
The length of workplace mediation varies depending on the severity of the conflict and the number of people involved. It can take anywhere from one meeting to several meetings, spread out over a period of weeks or months.
In most cases, the employer pays for workplace mediation. However, there may be instances where the parties involved agree to split the cost.
Yes, all information shared during workplace mediation is confidential. This means that nothing said during mediation can be used as evidence in arbitration or litigation.
Common topics discussed in workplace meditation include communication problems, interpersonal conflict, job dissatisfaction, and differences in opinion.
The best way to prepare for workplace mediation is to come to the meeting with an open mind and a willingness to compromise. It may also be helpful to write down a list of topics you would like to discuss beforehand.
