whats the process?

How Our Mediation Process Resolves Workplace Conflicts Effectively

Our mediation service follows a structured, yet flexible, approach to resolving workplace disputes. Here's how it works:

  1. Initial Consultation: We begin by understanding the conflict from all perspectives, speaking confidentially with each party involved to assess the situation.
  2. Mediation Session: A trained, impartial mediator facilitates a discussion in a neutral setting, ensuring that both sides have the opportunity to express their views and concerns. The mediator guides the conversation, helping the parties communicate openly and constructively.
  3. Identifying Solutions: Through open dialogue, the mediator assists both sides in identifying areas of agreement and finding mutually acceptable solutions. The focus is on resolving the issue in a way that benefits both parties.
  4. Agreement: Once a resolution is reached, the mediator helps formalise the agreement, ensuring both parties are clear on their commitments moving forward. This agreement is typically non-binding but encourages accountability.
  5. Follow-Up: After the mediation, we offer follow-up support to ensure the agreement is being upheld and that the resolution has led to a lasting improvement in workplace relationships.

Our process is confidential, voluntary, and designed to promote understanding and cooperation, resulting in long-term positive outcomes for both employees and employers.

The Advantages of Using an Independent Third-Party Mediator in Workplace Conflicts

Bringing in an independent third-party mediator offers several key benefits in resolving workplace conflicts:

  1. Impartiality: A third-party mediator is neutral, with no prior involvement or bias in the situation. This allows for a fair and balanced process where both parties feel heard and respected, increasing trust in the resolution process.
  2. Expertise: Professional mediators are trained in conflict resolution techniques, helping to guide the conversation constructively and ensuring that communication remains focused on finding solutions, rather than escalating tensions.
  3. Objectivity: Being external to the organisation, an independent mediator can assess the situation without any internal influence or pressures, offering fresh perspectives and facilitating solutions that might not be immediately apparent to those within the organisation.
  4. Confidentiality: A third-party mediator ensures that all discussions remain confidential, creating a safe environment where employees can express their concerns without fear of repercussions.
  5. Focus on Resolution: By bringing in an external mediator, the focus is on reaching a mutually agreeable solution rather than assigning blame, helping to preserve working relationships and maintain a positive team dynamic.

Frequently Asked Questions

Please contact us on 0800 567 7003 if you cannot find an answer to your question.

Mediation is effective for resolving a wide range of workplace disputes, including interpersonal conflicts, team tensions, grievances, management-employee issues, and conflicts between departments. Whether it's communication breakdowns, misunderstandings, or clashes over roles and responsibilities, mediation can help find a positive solution. 


Mediation itself is not legally binding unless both parties agree to formalise the outcome in a signed agreement. However, it creates a strong foundation for voluntary agreements, helping to restore relationships and prevent future issues. Should both parties wish to formalise the resolution, the terms can be written into a contract. 


The duration of the mediation process depends on the complexity of the conflict. Most cases can be resolved in a single session lasting a few hours, while more complex disputes may require multiple sessions. Our mediators work efficiently to ensure a timely resolution, usually within a few days to a couple of weeks from the initial consultation. 


 Yes, confidentiality is a key part of the mediation process. Everything discussed during mediation remains private, and only the parties involved are aware of the details. This allows employees to speak freely and address the core issues without fear of repercussions. 


Yes, mediation is a voluntary process, and both parties must agree to participate. It’s important that everyone involved is open to resolving the issue and willing to engage in open, honest discussions. 


Unlike formal grievance procedures, which are often more rigid and adversarial, mediation is informal, flexible, and focuses on collaboration. It aims to maintain and improve working relationships, rather than assigning blame or punishment. Mediation is quicker, less stressful, and more cost-effective than going through formal processes. 


The mediator acts as an impartial facilitator, guiding the conversation between the parties to help them communicate effectively. The mediator does not make decisions or impose solutions but helps both sides explore options and reach a mutually acceptable agreement. 


While mediation is highly effective, it’s possible that some conflicts may not be fully resolved during the process. If an agreement isn’t reached, both parties are free to pursue other avenues, such as formal grievance procedures or legal action. However, mediation often clarifies issues and helps both parties better understand each other’s perspectives, which can lead to resolution at a later stage. 


 Yes, mediation can be used at any stage, whether the conflict is just beginning or has escalated over time. In fact, early intervention through mediation can often prevent a situation from worsening, saving time and stress for everyone involved. 


 The cost of mediation depends on the complexity of the case and the number of sessions required. We offer competitive pricing and are happy to provide a tailored quote based on your organisation's needs. Contact us for more details or to discuss a customised solution.
