Mediate to Solve Workplace Disputes
“Peace is not the absence of conflict but the presence of creative alternatives for responding to conflict.” Dorothy Thompson |
Everywhere you turn there seem to be news items about employers struggling to handle disputes with employees. From CP Publishing in Glasgow having their name dragged through the press on harassment and discrimination charges to the Home Office who were forced to pay £120,000 each in compensation to two interpreters, organisations are really suffering from their apparent inability to handle workplace disputes effectively.
In the 2007 budget the Chancellor announced measures which should see more scope for greater use of mediation to resolve employment disputes. And what great news that is for businesses everywhere.
You may never have thought of using mediation as a route to resolving employee and workplace disputes. But when you think that mediation successfully resolves disputes in at least 80% of cases it’s certainly worth a closer look.
