If disputes between employees are not dealt with they can lead to lengthy and protracted problems in teams and between workers which distract employees from their job and effect productivity. They often lead to absence from work and you can lose valuable and skilled people.

Mediation can help people who don’t see eye to eye sort out their differences.

It is an informal and economic way of solving a problem and getting people back to work.

Mediation is a way of resolving disputes without going to court or an employment tribunal. Dealing with formal grievance and disciplinary processes take up time and money.

Mediation works by using a trained neutral mediator to work with people who have a disagreement and help them to find their solution and reach an agreement. It is a confidential process and can be implemented over a few days .A whole range of situations can be dealt with in this way.

• Line manager and employee disagreement about work/breakdown in relationship
