What is Mediation?

Fair and Neutral
Parties have an equal say in the process and decide settlement terms, not the mediator.
Saves Time and Money
Mediation usually occurs early in the dispute, and many mediations are completed in one meeting.
Confidential
All parties sign a confidentiality agreement. Information disclosed during mediation will not be revealed to anyone, including investigative or legal council.
Avoids Litigation
Lengthy litigation CAN be avoided. Mediation costs less than a lawsuit and avoids the uncertainty of judicial outcome.
Fosters Cooperation
Mediation fosters a problem solving approach to complaints and workplace disruptions are reduced.
Improves Communication
Mediation provides a neutral and confidential setting where both parties can openly discuss their views on the underlying dispute.
Discover the Real Issues in your Workplace
Parties share information, which can lead to a better understanding of issues affecting the workplace.
Design your own Solution
Mediation can resolve underlying issues important to the parties, not just the dispute itself.
