A respectful and positive way to deal with a range of disputes that happen in the workplace.
Our skilled mediators explore the background to disputes, impacts on parties and their desired outcomes. Counsellors can also support individuals through the process, using conflict coaching and counselling.
Agreements in mediation can be informal or be made into a formalised written document. Good outcomes in mediation can lead to:
- harmony in the workplace.
- improved productivity
- improved company profits.
